No, about doing the surgery. Im super anxious about having the surgery now.

Wondering how you are doing following surgery? I'm nervous of the pain and dehydration as well. I am only on day 4 of my 8 day pre op diet and I am extremely nauseous from the Protein Shakes. I just keep telling myself that I am going to feel so much better once I lose this 100 lbs that is putting so much pressure on my body and mind. I have been through hard things before. This is going to be a big commitment, but I am doing this for myself.

Prayerfully… 3 days and a wake up for my surgery. I am excited and starting to get a little nervous. I’ve been on this liquid diet for about 11 days and I’m not getting hungry anymore.

How’s everyone else doing?

That is wonderful!

Anyone else is over all this nausea and fatigue. Are y’all taking anything for the nausea?

I am super nauseated. Did you end up taking something?

I had my surgery on the 12th. The incision sites pain is tolerable, but my lungs hurts so bad. Especially when I try to breathe in. Don't know if it's the gas in my body or what but I was wondering if anybody else felt like this?

Hey! I had mine in the 11th. It hurt when I breathed in the day and morning after but as I keep using the spirometer it gets easier and easier and the breathing stops hurting. Definitely keep using it. Or just taking deep slow breaths. Probably if it keeps hurting, reach out to your surgeon. Wishing you a speedy recovery ♥️

        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!!
