Well, it is here. I must say 3 months went quickly.

I’m drinking Clear Liquids only today and then at 6pm I have to do the dreaded prep. I guess the bathroom will be where I spend most of the night...

I don’t know why I need to clear out my colon for VSG but I will comply...

Pain meds tend to block you up pretty badly, so you'll be happy you don't have a poop backlog to process!

Anyway, best wishes on your surgery and hoping you have a speedy recovery!

I didn't have to do any prep. I'm glad that sounds like it would suck. Good luck! You'll make it :-)

Got the call earlier that I have to be there at 530 AM. Hospital is one hour away so 430 AM we leave.

I guess I will be setting my alarm for 339 AM?! Dear Lord!

I was hoping to go early but not THAT early! Yikes

Hi all! I made it with flying colors.

I stayed the one night and now I am home.

It was easier than I expected. I’m sore but not that bad.

Gas pains were minor but I did walk an awful lot so maybe that helped.

Best wishes to all!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
