I'm so excited......April 12th I will be having my VSG surgery. I'm excited and nervous - but I hope this month goes by quick!

If all goes well I'll be having the SILS Sleeve (Single Incision Laproscopic Sleeve) which means only one incision through my belly button (no scars!).

Pre surgery diet starts on April 5 and isn't too restrictive so it shouldn't be too bad!

Wish me luck!!!

SW - 240

CW - 229

Goal - 165 to 170

I'm not sure , but every patient here has to go through a three week course and be on the diet for three weeks. They have the whole thing map out, then you go through a six weeks post op and attend classes once a week for cooking, shopping, coupons and exercise. I have not met another person on line that has had to go through all of this. Does anyone know how to get the guide that ticks about your weight under your profile?
