Charli - I'm sure it's very frustrating to be waiting by the phone for a call. I hope you'll still get surgery today or in the next day or so. Personally, I would feel very good about my doctor being needed for an emergency --- seems like it speaks to his expertise and skill. That's the kind of surgeon I'd want. Keep us posted! Pam

Michelle Please stop attacking people. We're just trying to help you. Jumping all over people won't get you anywhere. Also, if you notice under each person's name it will tell you exactly what type of surgery and their surgery date (if they updated that information). You attacked Carolyn who was trying to help you and you wrongly accused her. Notice she hasn't even had her RNY surgery yet. Please. Be nice. Pam

...this time tomorrow. I'm a bit scared, and super-apprehensive, wondering if I've made the right decision. ...Jitters stink. Any last words or advice? Things you wish you had brought with to the hospital, etc? Thanks, Megh p.s. This clear-liquid diet sucks. I know I'll be on it for a while, but I'm ready to do an Exorcist routine with broth.

awww, thanks so much kevin, and congratulations to you on ur wieght loss. I had mine on the 19th, making today my one week surgiversary! yea me! keep up the good work!

Thanks and same to you. I had the gastric bypass on the 12th of november and the pain was there but I dealt with it pretty well. I haver had the mind games of wanting to eat what everyone else had but I know if I did, I would have the devil to pay. My wife got a pureer machine and has grinded up turkey, ham and mashed potatoes and I have had soups as well so there is life after wards. I have lost 20 lbs since then and I feel much much better!! It does det easier and it doesn't have to mean the end of your foods that you like just smaller amounts. I wish you the best of luck in your new experience and remember, you are not alone! Cya...Kevin
