Hi! I am scheduled for May 20. I am 4 days into the preop liquid diet. It's a little surreal to know that everything in my life is about to change.

I'm on day 4 of my pre-op diet too but my RNY surgery is scheduled for this Thursday. It's so interesting to see how everyone has different requirements before surgery. I'm struggling today with drinking my shakes. The vanilla Bariatric Advantage just doesn't does good after 4 days and 4 shakes per day.

Hello everyone! My surgery was on May 16, 2022 everything went great, I had no gas pain, and I was sore at my incision sites. I was released from the hospital the next day. I have had no problems getting my fluids down or Protein however, since starting the puree stage I am finding it difficult to eat anything other than Soup and Jello. any suggestions? Oh BTW I can't eat tuna it just doesn't sit with me.

I had my surgery on tuesday May 24th. I was scheduled for a sleeve but as my reflux was bad and I had gained weight from having a lap band (I lost a lot at first) The doctor recommended the Gastric Bypass.
I'm still coming in terms with such a huge gastric surgery but I hope I'll be happy with it.

Recovering has been horrible. Yesterday I had massive labor pains all day and today I had ups and downs. I couldn't drink anything. So Water only for me for the next two days I think.

Hello, I am glad that you're progressing well. May I ask which Bariatric surgery did you have?

      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!!
