I had vsg 4/4 and my first 24hrs of recovery was miserable! The nausea and dry heaving were horrible and i couldnt get comfortable. I am now 5 days post op and things are much better. Just a little sore and tender. Biggest struggle now is getting protein in[emoji21]🤢 which makes me want to vomit. Good luck and congrats! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile app

I have officially started my vsg journey! Anyone else at this stage? And a couple other questions how is your support system? How is your significant other handling it? I ask because mine says he's supportive but has concerns about after surgery...like if I lose a bunch of weight I will leave him if I start getting attention from other people.

How long from First appt until surgery?
BrandiJo2009 replied to riemgirl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am actually at my first appt today. My insurance requires a 6 month pre-op requirement and I'll also have to see a dietitian once a month for the 6 months and see a physical therapist and a psychologist. I'm looking at December or January for my surgery. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile app -
I have my first appt June 5th with my surgeon and a dietician. Due to insurance I have to see a dietitian once a month for 6 months prior to surgery. I am looking for someone who is at the same stage as me and would like to exchange info for info, experience, rants or whatever since family and friends may not know or may be to judgemental.

Why do you need to lose 8lbs? During the 6 month process did you have to lose a certain amount of weight in order to get surgery? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile app -

What was your breaking point?
BrandiJo2009 replied to jiminy_cricket's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have been over weight majority of my life. But I think the breaking point was when everything happened at once last month I was diagnosed with PCOS and hypothyroidism, my feet, ankles and knees starting hurting all the time and I hit my top weight at 302.
