I'm scheduled on August 13th. Already filed my insurance, had my intake interview with the hospital and talked to the anesthesia people. Have a few more appointments with the doc and my intro to the aftercare program.

Then I'm ready! I can't wait!

Good luck! What time is your surgery? Mine is 7:15am so I have to be at the hospital at 5:30am. I'm totally not a morning person, but I'm glad I'm first. The doc says I will be finished by the afternoon and ready to go home.

Oh that's wonderful! I have to call Sunday to find out my time! I hope I'm first thing in the morning only because I don't have time to sit around and think about it! I'll make myself sick! I'm so excited and scared wrapped into one ball of mess over here! I'm not worried about the pain! I just can't stand to feel sick! So I'm praying that I'm not one of the people who feel sick and keep vomiting! :( I'd rather have pain honestly! How about you? Excited?

Hey sleevers, how is everyone doing?

My surgery went really well. The doctor found a esophageal hernia while he was in there and he went ahead and fixed that. I had no idea I had a hernia at all! Glad they got that taken care of.

Am relaxing at the in-laws house right now with some quality Jello.

How did everyone's surgery go?

Count me in as an Aug 13th sleever!

We leave for the El Paso airport at 10:30 am to fly home.

Whenever I swallow, I feel a little pain bubble about 3-5 seconds later. It's minor but it happens every time. I also developed a sore throat last night. I don't think it's from acid reflux as my wife you I trawling with me caught it too.

I am sure it's all normal. These next few weeks are gonna be tough, but sooooooo worth it. :)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
