I am 27, scheduled to have the surgery on July 11th. I am preparing to start the 2 week pre op liquid diet. Does anyone have any tips? :)

Good luck! When I did the preop diet back in 09, it definitely was hard, but got easier. If you're allowed, put a serving of frozen fruit in with your Protein Shake and blend it. That is one thing I would've done and I'm going to do when I have the preop diet. Keep yourself busy. And make sure to have the sugar free versions of your fav foods or drinks. Sf Jello, sf pudding, sf Popsicles, sg fudgicles, sf drink mixes like Crystal light or sugar free iced tea and gatorade/sf Powerade. You know. But like I said, I highly recommend keeping yourself busy

DAY 6 post op and today is the first day I would say that I feel pretty good. Not back to normal of course but I don’t feel lethargic. I actually went on a 30 minute walk! It’s crazy how quickly you can go from barely being able to move to minimal pain and discomfort. 11 lbs down from surgery date too.

I was 6/27 and I’m waiting for this. I read nearly everyone stalls around week 3 so it’s normal.

Yay! So exciting!! How long have you been on the process for?
I started my 6 month supervised diet with my PCP back in November and finished that mid-April. I had my first appointment at my surgeon's office 5/10. I went to my endoscopy pre-op appointment on 7/1 and mentioned I still needed to speak with the psychologist. They got in contact with him and he called me that afternoon. After a brief conversation, he said I passed and it sounded like I was ready for this. So now I have my endoscopy on Friday and within two weeks or so after that they should hopefully call me with a surgery date. I'm so excited. It's getting real! A small part of me is a little bummed though because on Saturday my captain told me he would be moving me back into the control room soon on a certain sergeants off days so now that's going to happen and then I'm going to turn around and be out for four weeks! I know Cap will work with me and knows why I'll be out, but I hate to inconvenience him too and I LOVE running the control room. It'll be worth it in the end though!

      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!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
