ABetterMe 3 Posted March 20, 2012 Welcome ABetterMe! How are you doing? I see that your surgery is coming up. How are you feeling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChaChaBurch 60 Posted March 20, 2012 I see that your surgery is coming up. How are you feeling? So far, so good. The liquid diet was tough the first few days, but now I'm just rolling along. Looking forward to Thursday. I keep thinking that I'm going to get a call any minute and told that they're going to have to change it, or that my insurance has changed their mind (LOL).

ChaChaBurch 60 Posted March 20, 2012 I see that your surgery is coming up. How are you feeling? I see your in Dallas. I lived in Dallas my whole life until January 2009. Who was your doctor, if you don't mind me asking? If that makes you uncomfortable, I understand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ABetterMe 3 Posted March 20, 2012 So far, so good. The liquid diet was tough the first few days, but now I'm just rolling along. Looking forward to Thursday. I keep thinking that I'm going to get a call any minute and told that they're going to have to change it, or that my insurance has changed their mind (LOL). LOL...I'm sure those are normal thoughts. I had my surgery exactly two weeks after my consultation, so I didn't really have time to think about it. I was so busy with the pre-op diet, scheduling pre-op lab work, pre-op class, and my cardiac clearance. Plus my mom was admitted into the hospital a week before my surgery. It didn't actually hit me until I was waiting in the lobby at the hospital. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

desert19 93 Posted March 20, 2012 Rescuehoney - I am 1 day behind you. My dr started letting me have yogurt and cottage cheese after 3 days. I added scrambled eggs yesterday. I think it is what you feel up to and what your dr's instructions are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleeverella 1 Posted March 20, 2012 March 21st with Dr. Salzberg at Riverside Hospital in Newport News, VA Very cool, Dr. Salzberg banded me in Norfolk VA in 2008. She was very nice back then, with a different team though. I recall going in for surgery day and expecting my DR Wolgmuth (sp) and she came in and I said hello and she started talking and then said so anything I can do for you and I said.... ummm no but when can I see my Dr? She said you are looking at her! Haha I was suprised bc I had never met her. She did a great job, even though it was removed last week and revision to sleeve with my dr now in Texas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
