Hi Sez22,

I am getting my surgery locally, in Las Vegas on 11-28. I have about 80-100 pounds to lose. How about you? When is your surgery scheduled?

Well, I'm about to head to bed then off to the hospital. Surgery scheduled for noon. Wish me luck!

Successful surgery. Gas pain isn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. I think the toughest part is standing up to walk and feeling that stretch in your abdomen. But all in all doing very well. Up to about 3 oz of Water an hour consistently, just need that 4th one and I go home.

Happy its going good for you.

I just reached the point in my preop diet that i have to drink the special drink they provided and cut one of my Snacks. I am struggling. Those of you on pure liquid preop are my new heros.

4 more days.
