So I finally have my surgery date. March 7th. Anyone else having their surgery around then? Would love to chat with anyone who needs support with this journey also.

My date is March 1, and I dont have to start liquid diet until afterwards. Just low carb/no sugar one week out, although I’ve already started as a way to get my head in the game and stay invested. Good luck to all!

Hi, my date is March 6th! I am cutting out carbs, sugar and caffeine this week. Starting liquid diet next week. Which surgery are you having? I am going with the bypass.

I’m March 7th as well. Getting the gastric sleeve. Starting the liver shrinking diet tomorrow.
Cool. I started mine today. So far on my first day it's not bad. Only day 1 though lol. But the shakes are feeling along with the Water. I'm having the sleeve with the duodenum switch

Nice! I started replacing 1 meal with the shakes. So far not too bad. Tomorrow I’ll be going full throttle. Nervous and excited. Do you have everything you need like Vitamins, heating pad, portion sized bowls,? I’ve added a bunch of stuff to my Amazon cart, but I have one last meeting with my surgeon tomorrow before March 7th. I’m going to ask if all of the stuff I have is really necessary. Lol

Yes I did 2 huge Amazon orders. Lol. I believe I have everything. I ordered this food kit just for bariatric surgery. I have a my Vitamins, I even bought some under garmets for the surgery too. To lessen having loose skin plus skin tightening cream. What do you have so far? Plus I got the food measuring cups

I bought the tiny forks and spoons from Amazon - and have started using pre-surgery. I am also considering a hand blender

      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!!
