It will be the best thing u have ever done. Stay strong and keep focus- and just do it one day at a time. Remember to go somewhere u have never been u must first do wat u have never done... Good luck

My surgery is scheduled for May 25 as well. Day 4 into my liquid diet, cranky as hell but I'm managing. Not tempted by food but my head hurts. I feel bad for hubby and kids. The weekends will be the toughest. May 22 will be tough as well, a double bday I can't miss. My mom and my brothers. We are having a potluck, I'll tell them I ate a lot at home while I was cooking :)

Hope your liquid diet is going well.

Just got word today that I'm the 25 th too! This is day 7 of my 2 week diet. I'm ready for this part to be over for sure! Do either of you have small children? I am a stay at home mom with no babysitter options. Not sure how I'm going to keep my 2 year old off of me when I get home?

I have 3 children and the youngest is 3. Since I'm off work for the summer (I'm a para educator and school will be out) I won't have baby sitter either. Honestly I don't think the actual incision will be what bothers us. I hear it's more pain from the actual stomach. But idk I haven't had it yet to know lol

At least we know we aren't alone, we can sympathize with each other!

      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?
