I Have to move VSG surgery because I recently had to have EMERGENCY surgery to remove a cyst . Actually this was Thursday . The gyn thought it was on my ovary but actually it was by the rectum . However , my Fallopian tube was wrapped around it . Soo they had to take that out . Out of all of this I am grateful because I don't want to deal with this my first year in college and to save all my other organs . I love kids so I am so happy we are born with two tubes . As of right now I can not have another surgery for 3 months so VSGmight have to wait . BUT AS I SAID ALL IN ALL I AM GREATFUL.

No not yet jan 8th and as the days get closer I seem to panic.... I'm preparing mentally and emotionally... Done a lot of reading on here and it helps to hear all the different experiences, good and bad. But I am leaving it in gods hand..... I wish you a speedy recovery.

I'm glad they were able to fix the issue before it worsened. I'm sorry about the delay, because it can be frustrating. But the reality is that more time to prepare is never a bad thing and three months will go by more quickly than you think. I waited three months from the time I booked my surgery to the time I was able to go and have it done, so I understand. I read so much and learned a lot and I think that it really helped me post op.

I'm glad you still have one tube and I have more than one friend with a similar situation that was able to conceive this way, so no worries for your future. I'm sure everything will work out in time.

Best of luck, and here's wishing you a speedy three months!

      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.
