New to this group and just started my two week pre op diet. Feeling good so far and looking forward to the surgery date. I previously had the lap band from 2009 - 2017 when I had it removed due to the port flipping 3 times on me. You all got this and it will be worth it at the end.

Congrats! I get my sleeve on the 16th. 2 days!!! I wish you well with this one. Where in California? I'm here also. Live in Los Angeles but getting my surgery done in fountain Valley it's a long drive but worth it! I really like my dr. And my surgery coordinator.....The Best ever! She's made me feel so good about doing this. This medical group is great. And the hospital staff I've talked with are too!

Thank you!! I’m in La Mirada and having my surgery in Orange. I had my lapband back in 2009 in Fountain Valley at Orange Coast. I had the band removed due to port flipping 3 times.
I’m doing fairly well with my liquid diet and counting down for the 22nd.
Wish you the best and a speedy recovery after surgery.

Is that at Fountain Valley Regional Medical Center? That's where I'm going. In fountain Valley. Never been there before this. But I really like what I see in my Dr and staff. My insurance group sent me there. I was just happy they'd pay. I've been wanting this for years but didn't think it a possibility. I'm so incredibly thankful! Good luck! :)

        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!!
