Well, after looking deep into the internet and finding really awful things about the surgeon I chose, I'm not going to MX in Feb. I've found some other MX surgeons, but my husband is not having it. So we're looking into some self pay options in the US. I've found a surgeon that is doing VSG for $7800, in FL. I've resuested info.

Keep me in prayer. I'm praying for all of you <3

My surgeon will be Dr. Alvarez in Mexico. He is 8900 for everything except getting you to San Antonio. He has a YouTube channel if you're interested. Wishing you well!

Hi All! I'm scheduled for February 15th, assuming insurance approves it. Eeep! So excited! :)

Just got my surgery date today! February 20th! It's crazy how some of my friends are happy for me that I got my date. While others who I thought I had their support won't say anything. At least my family is supportive!

My preop class is February 6th. I'm hoping to have a mid February surgery date, so we'll see. What dates are/were your preop classes? Is it normally two to three weeks before the surgery?

My class is February 6th as well. My surgery date is the 20th of February. I don't get why they gave you a preop class date but not a surgery date.

      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.
