LOL I ams so nervous about the upcoming surgery... Went to get my stess test yesterday and they had my surgery listed as the 28th. I knew they changed it from the 27th to the 28th awhile back. The OR nurse called this morning and she said she had me scheduled for the 26th.... I received paper work for the surgery from the Doc's office today and it says the 26th.... I called to ask what day to show up and haven't got a call back yet.. I hope I show up on the right day... I know my Dr. likes to do all lap bands one day and all bypass the next day and all vsg the next day... Silly thought... what happens if I end up with the wrong surgery... I know that won't happen.. just more of my silly brain going "What if..." Thanks for letting me vent some of my crazy thoughts and nerves.

Khy,

That kind of swing in the scheduling would make anyone wonder. But remember on surgery day...you will be asked probably 10 times by each person what you are there for. No worries. You will be tired of saying you are there for VSG by the time they actually do the procedure. NO WORRIES :P

Thanks. Guess I need to control my brain but when I an tired is when it starts playing "What if" with me.

      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.
