My surgery is March 19th. And I am so excited but very nervous. I am not sure how to handle what people will say. I'm trying to think positive thoughts!! What are some things that you women are looking forward to being able to do once you lose some of the weight or even all of the weight??

Good luck to all of today's surgeries!

As for me, no more morephin, horrible chest pain and getting ready for UGI. Catheter is out(thank god).

Feeling a little tummy discomfort(5incisions) but its the chest pain that is bothering.

Slept like a baby last night but that was due to the pain meds, unfortunately no more today :(

I'm happy you are doing so great. My guess is the chest pain is from the anesthesia working out of your system. I've had many surgeries and sometimes the pain in my chest/shoulder area was worse than the surgical pain. Thankfully, it goes away within a day or so. Are they going to be giving you anything for pain?

You did great, now if only I do as great. I am afraid I won't have my surgery. I have cheated on my opifast diet of shakes only every day so far.

Sorry to hear about your chest pain. Judging from the other post op threads it's probably the gas right? I know mine was a real b!+*# after my lap band surgery. Good to know you are doing well otherwise. Good luck and prayers out to everyone today.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      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.
