I am sorry to hear that. Don't be discouraged. Take it as a challenged. My op was postponed twice cos the theatre was fully booked and the doctor was away at a conference!! Doc even asked me if I was upset!!!!! Told me the postponement means I can enjoy my Christmas!!! OK!!!!??????? NOT. Anyway after all that my op will be done on Feb 2. It will happen my dear just don't be discouraged. Push on... Have hope.

Hi everyone.. Sorry for the late reply. Been awfully busy. Sure appreciate you guys buddy-ing up with me. I am due for another session with my dietician on 19 Jan... but I have been told to be on Optimist 2 weeks prior to surgery. Having said that I was told to be on Optifast for a meal daily and slowly to 2 meals a day 2 days a week. Initially it was quite ok to follow this but lately I noticed i get hungrier.... Its like I HAVE to eat something... be it a piece of cracker or a slice of fruit to stave the hunger.. Anyone experience that? Its weird. Takes a lot of self control less i eat a whole cow...

How does Sleep Apnea complicate the VSG date?
tiger1961 replied to Slimsoon1988's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am due for surgery early February. WLS surgery actually reduces sleep apnea or cures it completely! The sleep specialist have advised to use the CPAP machine 2 weeks prior and 2 weeks after! That's it. It doesn't complicate the surgery. They would not recommend me to buy the machine even. Just rent it for the period needed and I am done! Hope this helps allay your anxiety.
