Hi, I am on Nov.30th - start my preop diet tomorrow! I'd love to have friends for the journey!

I’m on the 30th too! How did you handle staying on the pre-op diet through Thanksgiving? So tough!

December 2 RNY! I’m so ready! I’ve been wanting to do this for 2 years but only felt ready to make the changes in the last few months.

I have a gastric sleeve being performed on December 14th. That is if I don't get Covid. Someone sick sat next to me, both of us masked, but I didn't know he was sick. He got tested the next day and has Covid. So praying I don't get symptoms and I can take my preop COVID test and be all good on the 9th for my surgery on the 14th. All this on top of the fact that I was about finished with all of my tests right before everything was shut down the first time because of COVID.

I am still waiting on a surgery date but found out today that I was approved by insurance, was told sometime early December. I would love to have friends through this journey whos going through the same thing around the same time. No one would understand more than those doing this journey with you.

Yay!! Im suppose to find out my surgery date this week too. I'm hoping for around the 16th or so. I'm in NC, too. I will be having surgery in Concord, not sure if you are familiar with this area, but I wish you the best. Keep me posted..

I’m scheduled for revision surgery on December 8. I’ve had two failed bands and a sleeve. Going for bypass. I’m nervous and excited.

        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!!
