    Thank you you opinion really helps. That what I think most abou5 seeing my family who have been overweight their entire life and seeing the pain they are going through the because of that. I don't want to experience that no pain now but idk what the future holds because of that. Not only that I have a 4 yrs old. I'm so winded that I don't want to go play when we go to to the park.

    Hi. I'm a 59 year old man, presurgery. I was planning on a November surgery,but that was put off. My wife just found out she needs a hip replacement, so that puts me off a bit! She is having it done 10/14.

    I have learned so far. Mostly, that I am not a freak, and there are plenty of us out here. Sorry, but the world can certainly make you feel that way. But not any more.

    Gary Bentz reacted to Butch Luce in Last day of liquid diet, surgery tomorrow!   
    Day 3 post surgery report. Much better day! Bowel gas is subsiding although I still have some. Slept better last night mainly because I didn't have to urinate so often. I've been conscientious about getting my fluids in. Not much Protein yesterday but today will have about 80 grams. Consumed a Premier Protein this morning and now have been consuming Water and Isopure. Hope to try a little chicken broth tonight. Walked to the mailbox and back a couple of times today. Am still tired (weak) but nap when I feel like it. Just trying to follow my doctors orders. Oh, pain in my abdomen is almost completely gone. Only feel it getting in and out of bed. I guess the main advice I can give is to be patient, follow the plan, and each day will get a little better!
