I'm itching too! I'm starting to be head hungry, when I smell food or sit at the table for dinner with my family- and I'm still on Clear liquids till Friday Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So I had surgery on 8/11 and today am feeling so much better. Taking little sips and off the IV. Might be going home today but not sure as my drain has more liquid than normal so they may keep me another night. Honestly this was very hard, way harder than I thought it would be. Today I feel so much better, doing my laps around the hospital and drinking tea. Not hungry at all. Just the thought of food makes me nauseous. How are you other recent surgeries doing?

I made it through! The pain afterwards was excruciating and I wish I had been prepared. They only give me enough pain medication to cut the edge off and then they make me walk. My mouth is like a cotton ball, but I'm feeling better now, I'm 10 hrs post surgery! Today I was reborn!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm in the pre-op and ready to go any minute. My coordinator told me today is the worse day and all up hill after that. I'm as ready as I'll ever be. Last night I got a terrible migraine and spent the night throwing up bile- as stomach was empty. They gave me Tylenol in my IV so I'm better now. See you on the other side!

I'm stating at 208. I'm 5'1". I am having surgery on the 11th. I'll let you know! PM me if you want to chat. I'm having the bypass. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I don't know. I'm at a 39.5 BMI no co morbidity so I have no idea. I was mentally preparing for a two week liquid diet but the surgeon told me only 2 days clear liquid. I'm in the US in Miami. Going to get my act together starting today as if I had to do the liquid pre op diet so I don't get crazy headaches afterwards. I'm 39 and have a weight of 208 lbs and a goal 138.

I'm Aug 11 and only have a 2 day clear liquid diet. I'm freaking out because I'm eating more now, as if it's the last time. Why am I doing this? It's like I'm sabotaging myself before I even start!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Aug 11th! So nervous!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have the same day. I'm super nervous. I only have a 2 day pre op liquid diet and 10 day post op clear liquid diet. I feel I might have rushed into this but I think it's the anxiety and fear of not Having a normal life afterwards. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My fear is dying. I have 3 daughters. Youngest is 2, middle 10 and oldest 13. I know the risks are 0.23% at my center of excellence but I am a worrier. Other than a BMI of 40 I am healthy, no sugar, hypertension, cholesterol or sleep apnea issues, just a little knee pain. I'm self pay and scheduled for Aug 11. I need someone who's having bypass surgery around the same time to buddy up with. I'm having it w Dr Sosa at memorial west in Pembroke Pines. Anyone out there?
