Who is your surgeon? Mine is Dr. Wittgrove and he doesn't do the pre surgery diet also, your the only other person I've seen on here that doesn't have to do the pre surgery diet.

March 24,2013 is my date! I will have surgery in La Jolla, CA at Wittgrove Bariatric center Scripps with Dr. Wittgrove. I want to do this all right, but I'm scared to fail. I'm also really scared of having tons of loose skin. I'm 5'9 240 and would like to weigh 160. My highest weight was 262 6 years ago and I started VSG insurance requirements January 2014. How bad was the liquid to mushy food to solid food stages? I'm nervous about liquids only. I tried a liquid diet once and lasted a day it was so horrible! Any feedback or advice would be great! I know my thoughts are all over the place, but just writing what's on my mind

Weigh less than my husband Sit in a chair without my hips touching the sides Not worry if the seatbelt on a roller coaster is going to fit Shop in the non plus size section and have clothes fit great Run the camp Pendleton 5k mud run with my husband!

I would really like to weigh less than my husband too!!

I'm schedule for 3/24 also! Just got my date today and have the same fears you do. It's nice to know I'm not the only one out there!

Finished with all my insurance retirements with exception of my 3rd and final visit. Dr Wittgrove's office has been so supportive and we have decided to sleeve me late march early April! I must say seeing the psychologist was irritating. Not sure if it's meant to piss you off or if that particular psychologist was just having an off day. Anyone one have that same type of experience? Either way she passed me and I'm on my way!! A little scared, but really happy to get sleeved! Starting weight 246 1/12/14 Current weight 250 2/13/14 Goal weight 160 !

Thanks everyone for being so positive and encouraging!! I appreciate it so much and am looking forward to getting sleeved. Looking forward to sharing my journey as well as supporting others in their journey too!

I'm not going to let the psychologist bother me. I'm still really excited to get sleeved and start my new journey! I'm thankful that my husband is being really supportive as well as my children. They are my biggest supporters!!
