Hello!
I will be having my revision surgery November 14th after it being postponed a week from Nov 7th due to a scheduling conflict with the Dr.
I had gastric stapeling done when it was first "new" back over 20 years ago. A month after I had it done the staples let go and I chose not to have it fixed after a very difficult recovery and having to have my gall bladder taken out within that month as well. Here I am 20plus years later, very excited to be having a less evasive surgery. It's amazing how things change in 20 years! I have a big old scar from my belly button up my chest from the first surgery, whats 4 more little poke holes right? :)
I will have been on optifast for 3 weeks come surgery time... Don't quite know why I have to be on it for 3 weeks but I just do as I'm told. :)
Good Luck everyone!

Well I made it to Mooresville NC. Getting settled into the hotel. Off to a church service tonite for special prayer, then off to the hospital at 5:30am for surgery. Not nervous at this point, but I'm sure it's coming.

I am also having my surgery on the 10th! Good luck to you, Tish24. I am also on the liquid diet and do not miss food but by night, I dream of food. haha!
I am six days away (maybe even counting it as 5 since this day is basically over) from surgery. I am SO nervous-- I'm on the edge. lol I keep having nightmares about something going wrong.. Had a dream that I totally forgot I was having the surgery and ate a HUGE meal during my liquid diet and then couldn't find the number to my surgeon's office to tell them I screwed up. haha! I have also dreamed of food almost every single night since starting the pre-op liquid diet. I really can't wait for this to be over. I want my sleeve now!
Yay! I made it! Last day tomorrow as I travel to Mooresville, NC for surgery 7am Thursday! I'm thankful surgery is right around the corner. This was most definitely one of the hardest things I've done. I will say ENVY those who only have to do 2 week diets. I'm proud to say just 3 more pounds (I'm expecting it when I step on the scale before surgery) and I will have a 40lb weight loss pre-op! Everyone make room.... Loser's Bench Here I Come!
