I'm on day two as well and having such a hard time.

It gets better everyday Jakecal. I had a really hard time in the hospital and at home. Today is day 4 and the light is slowly coming through the clouds. Gas pain is gone (thank god!) But I have more mountains to climb but I will say today is just a little bit better than yesterday. It will get better xoxo

Thanks guys. Glad your doing better also. :-)

Panic attack slowly subsiding. I had an endoscopy last week in which biopsies were done and I found out I have Barrett's esophagus. Now the sleeve is not the best option for me. I had researched this procedure for a year. I have a tentative surgery date of the 30th. It's disappointing and scary to be told the Bypass is the better choice. Need some words buddies...;(

Not sure what that I exactly but your gol prior to that was a healthier life. That means anything to get you to that point is what you need to do. So regroup then research the lap band and decide from there. I pray the best outcome out out of this.

I thought it would be in January - but I was just scheduled with Dr. Cribbins for Dec. 31 in Plano, TX. I start the pre-op diet in a few days. It will be a happy New Year!

Yesterday was day 1 of liquid diet and we had a work meeting with pizza and wings and the fact that I couldnt have any was a struggle. Now on day 2 and feel a lot better. I would say that those struggling with liquid diet really just have to push through the first couple days.
