Wow amazing after so much time and effort I'll be going into hospital tomorrow morning...exactly 24 hours I'll be at the hospital.

Will be spending today washing and packing everything I need to take, getting a little anxious just hope everything goes smoothly and the recovery is not too hard..

I've done so good I did my own preop diet for 9 weeks just cut out all sugar; junk; and went high Protein low carbs low fats.

I'm officially down from highest weight of 322 and today I'm 258lbs 😀

I assume I'll take on some gas weight but still I'm so happy I'm aiming to get below 200.

My ultimate end goal would be 180-190lbs :)

But I'm really hoping this bypass will fix a lot of my medical issues as well..

getting excited and that 2020 will be a whole new year and new life for me :D

this may BE my last post as preop and in hospital I'll be going dark no INTERNET while I'm in hospital just decided I want to take the time TO concentrate on myself and my recovery so you may not hear from me until I return from hospital which could be a few days maybe more...

Here in Australia the surgeon won't allow me to leave until I'm doing everything properly and feeling good... Thank you again to everyone and their kind words thus far!!

Good luck! It will go well. I remember the day before, I was on autopilot and just went through the process that I'd rehearsed in my mind before hand. Before you know it, you will be on the losers bench. 👍

        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!!
