June 3rd Surgery Date!

[NYCVSGGirl87 24]

Hey everyone. I had my pre-op visit today and was told that I have a hiatal hernia that needs to be repaired. My doctor will fix that at the same time that he performs the gastric sleeve surgery. I am nervous but I am glad that this issue is being fixed and hopefully, it will alleviate my GERD.

After submitting my paperwork, getting denied and appealing, I finally was APPROVED! My surgery is scheduled for June 3rd.

My surgery is also June 3rd! I'm on the pre op diet and I'm having the hardest time. I was prepared for post op diet but pre op is hard! How are you doing it and what are you doing??

Our pre-op diet is only 1 day!! We have to do Clear Liquids the day before and nothing after midnight. That's all. How long are you on the diet??? 2 weeks?

Hello everyone, I am scheduled to have my lap band removed and VSG on June 3rd. I had my pre-op yesterday. I did not need an EKG... I think they will do it on the day I go in. I wasn't given a pre-op diet to follow, I just have instructions to have liquids only, the day before. Lap band SW:233, lost 30lbs Current wt-246 Goal weight-150

How long ago was your lap band? Is VSG a sleeve? I have my sleeve on June 3rd and just required to do liquids 24 hours beforehand too.

As I said before, my surgery is June 3. Wow! It's close and I'm nervous. I am 5'4" and currently 237 pounds. My goal weight is 130. I'm looking for a pen pal of sorts. Maybe someone to exchange emails with to help keep me sane through this process! Anyone interested?!?

I have had my lap band placed April 2008. I lost 30lbs and gained it all back since. I could only hold 1.7cc in a 10cc band and even that was too tight. So it my surgeon is going to remove it and do the vertical sleeve gastrectomy. I'm so excited and nervous. I know is time I will be successful... Are you ready?
