Macky. 12 Posted January 22, 2018 Hi everyone, I’m 20 years old and I’m having VSG 1/30/2018 at the Cleveland Clinic bariatric and metabolic institute. I started my 2 week liquid diet the 16th and so far it has proven difficult :/ My HW: 220 my CW: 210! Is anyone else getting sleeved the 30th (: I also have an Instagram account @heyitskay.vsg if anyone else in the community has an Instagram 1 SleevedSoulSistah reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allwet 868 Posted January 22, 2018 Hi just wanted to drop a line and say hang in there. The pre surgery diet can and does suck but hopefully it will be the hard part. The post Surgery diet is both easier and harder. Easier because if your real lucky you wont be hungery at all. It was 5 weeks out before i felt hunger pains and i was really enjoying that. It's harder beacuse its so boring those first 5 weeks or so. Make plans now for ways to distract yourself because food will not be a very big part of your life going forward and the mental game that causes is A lot tougher than i expected it to be. good luck and dont be a stranger around here after your surgery 2 ProudGrammy and Macky. reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
