I burp a lot too. Fortunately, I have not had a "fart" accident. I knew I'd better run to the bathroom if I felt one coming from reading on here. Glad I listened. lol I'm 6 days out from surgery now, so hopefully all the gas is about out!

Do NOT fart unless you are sitting on the toilet! I'm 6 days out today, and no way would I even think about letting one "slip" out. Sometimes it IS just a fart, but sometimes it is NOT. lol

you can NUKE Turkey Pepperoni's too, just place them on a paper towel instead! YUM, good protein snack.

my favorite for a "crunchy" snack (not right now though, but I did these before my surgery 7/23) is to take a saucer, spray it with PAM, put a piece of cheese on it and NUKE it in the microwave for a minute. Then take it out, let it cool a few seconds and whalah, a crunchy cheesy snack!

mine is 7/23. Hubby just had his 6/26.

Do not be afraid. Hubby just came home from having his sleeve done on Tuesday. He is doing wonderful and I'm having mine on July 23. I am psyched to get started with it. Believe me, I was so afraid that he'd be complaining about pain, and being miserable and make me chicken out, but he has been a real trooper. HE was up walking the 1st day, walked a bunch yesterday and today. Do what they say, and you'll be just fine. Walk, walk, walk and Sip, sip, sip. The worst part of the whole thing for him was the uncomfortable hospital bed. He's so happy to be home in his chair today. The world of medicine has come a long way. Do not be afraid. Go for it with confidence!

Hubby is having his in the am with Dr. Johnson in Spartanburg. Mine will be 7/23 with Dr. Johnson

hubby put in his request in yesterday for his favorite homecooked meal today. Guess it was my last too, lol. His surgery is 6/26 and mine will be 7/23. No way am I eating in this house when he can't. He actually starts his pre-op diet on Tuesday. I've been doing shakes for breakfast, chicken broth for lunch, and a "sensible" meal for 2 weeks. I can't go cold-turkey all at once. Trying to ease my way into it. Good luck yall.

Hubby and I are both APPROVED and Scheduled for VSG/Hernia Repair in Spartanburg, SC with Dr. Jason M. Johnson! Hubby June 26 and me July 23!!!!! We had our psyche exams and physician exams on Thurs and we had our endoscopies yesterday (this is when we found out we both have hernias). Dr's office called yesterday afternoon and they have received approval from our insurance, and our Pre-ops and surgeries are now scheduled!

Hi, so glad to see some SC people on here! My husband and I both will be having VSG with Dr. Jason Johnson. We don't have surgery dates yet, but we are jumping thru hoops now. We already had our initial consultations, 6 weeks of supervised diet, meeting to go over medical records, and have appts for psyche, exams, and endoscopies in the next couple of weeks. Anyone here had surgery by Dr. Johnson in Spartanburg?
