Oh sister! We are gonna rock it. Good job on ANOTHER six pounds, that is amazing. I am at the point where I am so obsessed, but in a good way. No more anxiety just wanna hop my booty on a plane. (Dang! What if I need a seat belt extender on the plane? Cruel irony that would be.) Any way we're almost there. My bags are already packed I've been cleaning my house and making arrangements for my people. Now I just need to survive two more days of work! Good luck Carrie!

Congratulations! How exciting may you have a speedy recovery. I would so much like to hear from you with details. I too will be having the VSG on April 12th. I am a newbie to this forum and trying to read of all experiences. :confused1:

Hi! I am next in line for surgery. I have my IV in, gown on, and I'm ready to go. The situation has been full of positives including a great lady named Diane who has taken me under her wing and been a great support. My turn is just minutes away!!! Thanks for all the support. It really means more than you could ever know.

Hi Anna,

Came by to see you but you were in recovery! See you tomm. or Saturday.

Anna

I was there and asked about you and Lucy said you where in surgery at that moment. She said you were doing great. I hope you are up and about tonight.

Teresa

I waited for you for awhile but guys were not there and Anna was just getting out of surgery. So I told Lucy to tell you hi and good luck. It took me 2 1/2 hrs to get back across the boarder. What a long day!! Will be thinking of you tomorrow.

love your tag line: Philippians 4:13. We used the Veggie Tales Pirates Who Don't Do Anything at a VBC we did up in a small village in Alaska and that was used in that program. The kids loved that program!

I had some problems with my port. I has twisted and it took 3 doctors and 25 minutes to poke and prod my stomach with huge needles to twisted back around for a second so they could get all the Fluid out of the band. My stomach is now all black and blue and sore. Dr. Campos is on his honeymoon and he has always been the one doing my fills and unfills and he always hated my port but usually got it on the 2nd or 3rd try. I hope you get a good night sleep and hope to here from you soon. Please make sure Anna knows I was there and checked on her.

Wishing you both luck and a speedy recovery.

Kathy

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
