Hello, I had a VSG last Monday (April 11th) and am doing quite well. I am not hungry and am down 12 lbs since. I am having difficulty with this site, any suggestions on nagivating through it better? Or how to add the pictures and the tracker thing. Im not totally clueless, but would like to use this more effectively. It really is amazing and inspiring to read about all of you.Thank you for the wisdom of those of you who have gone before me.

There is a really good tutorial on adding the ticker...do a search for it and a few will pop up. (edit) on the main screen with all the sections, scroll down to find VST site help...do the 'ticker' search there. I am sure that's where most of your 'how to' questions will be answered.

Pictures, I haven't really figured out to well either. The best thing to do is keep reading! I spend most of my time doing just that and then doing searches under the right catagory for topics that interest me. Good Luck and keep up the great work!

      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.
