I plan on posting on VST after my surgery. I am keeping a positive mind about this. I am so stoked. I started making my list of stuff I need to bring, such as hand sanitizer, antiseptic spray bandages, tape etc. I am also making a list of pre op and post op foods I will need to have on hand as well as some really good chewable vitamins. I am a planner and I have been planning this for 8 months. I am so glad to finally being able to get sleeved.

Oh, do share anything vital on the list! I am not nearly as organized but wish I was. I've never used the spray on antiseptic bandages--they sound interesting. After watching a show on the germs in hotel rooms, I will definitely have some clorox wipes & lysol spray! Are you travelling solo? I am--and starting to feel somewhat nervous about it all!

I will be coming with my soon to be ex husband, its all good. I belong to a Facebook private group called 2013 Mexico Sleevers. The coordinator that started it is Sharon. If you message her I am sure she will let you on. On the photo section there are pictures of what people have brought to Mexico. Remember if you are doing carry on, you have meet the liquid restriction. I hear the Marriott is very clean and nice. I have also heard good things about both hospitals. I have heard that when the nurses come in, they don't wash their hands in front of you, but they did before. They do not mind if you ask them to use hand sanitizer (that you bring) before they touch you. Good luck to you!! I will definitely share my experience here.!! :)

      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.
