My surgery is at 9 when's yours lol!!! I'm packing now. I still haven't gotten my laxative ugh. I sleep with a cpap. I hope I don't poop my pants Hahahah. Mines at 11 arrive at 9 leave at 7. I feel like I'm forgetting everything I need to bring. Any idea if we need to bring our own Vitamins? Just bringing clothes toothbrush blanket pillow and a bear. I have lupus I spend every weekend in the hospital. Idk why I'm so nervous now !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BurberryPlaid 20 Posted September 7, 2014 I'm going to tufts too! Dr Kim Good luck!! I'll be looking forward to hearing how it goes for you. I have Dr. Shah. I think what you're bringing is fine. I don't think you take Vitamins until after they clear you at your 2 week follow-up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lallylocks 111 Posted September 8, 2014 Hey to my fellow September Sleevers from Canada. I'll be heading to Juarez, Mexico for my sleeve surgery scheduled for September 24th! I know it's a ways to go yet, but everything has been brought together so quickly. I'm heading to Newfoundland for a 2 week vacation, then Sept 8th I start my pre-op diet. My surgeon doesn't use a liquid diet, but I'll be eating as much Protein as I can and limit my net carbs to 50 gr/day. I'll think about all of that when I get back from holidays. Good luck to everyone, can't wait to keep up on all of you who are having your surgery before I do. Hi there! A fellow Canadian from Saskatchewan, heading to Victoria BC for my VSG. Started my journey there 4 years ago and my surgery date is also the 24th! I'm so excited to finally be at this point. Good luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SOVANNA 9 Posted September 8, 2014 I was sleeved on 9/3. Discharged on 9/5. The only thing i needed out of my bag were, chapstick, gas x strips, tooth brush and toothe paste, scrunchy to keep my hair back, a maxi dress that i wore to the hospital, flip flops and my cell phone with charger! Thats all i used out of my bag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
