I get sleeved on the 15th. 11th day of the liquid diet, first 3 days I had a horrible headache, after that pretty smooth sailing.

Good luck to everyone out there anxiously awaiting the big day!

12/16/15 is my surgery date. 3week pre-op diet is still going well, but wrapping up work items so my backup is all set is stressful. My husband and adult son have been very supportive. My pre-op call to cover questions and confirm surgery etc. I found out I can change into my pj's after surgery, (yes many other more important items covered, but this news just made me happy for some reason). Hopefully nausea will be controlled well enough.

I'm 12/15/15 also...I can't wait. I started this journey in August of 2015 when I finally made the decision after 2 years of considering it.

In August I weighed in at 502lbs. Currently I'm at 448 and ready to go.

Good luck to everyone!

Tuesday the 15th! 10 day liquid diet going fine - 12 lbs lost! BUT, having to give up my Celebrex for RA is killing me. Meeting with my regular Dr after surgery to try to find a patch or liquid substitute.

Soooo, how's everyone doing 3 days post op? My pain seems to be going away and I'm able to drink and eat okay. My sleeve definitely lets me know when I go too fast or have too much.

Things are going a lot better. Sleeved on 12/15. The day after surgery was sooooo painful. The gas pains made me want to cry and almost puke a couple times. I could hardly sleep and the whole keep moving thing that the nurses kept telling me did no help at all.

Now that I'm home, I feel a lot better. I found a good way to sleep so I'm comfortable. I am easily getting my fluids in and was able to drink some Protein too! I am excited to start pureed foods in a couple days.

You got this!!! Just stay focused on your fluids and rest. ????????????????

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
