Hello

I just got approved for VSG my surgery date is 29 November I am taking 2 1/2 weeks off from work . I cant wait for this date . I start my liquid diet on the 18th 2018 and pre op 28 November. I have a $200. out of pocket which is nothing for this surgery. I am so blessed to have this happen for me. I had lap band in 2010 and did really well , but had to have it removed in 2017 because of complications. so I look forward to talking to you on the loser side.

Welcome new. End-of-monthers! It is fascinating and informative to hear from those already going through the process. As a 11/28 person, I start the preop diet in one week!

I was sleeved yesterday, Tuesday, Nov. 6th. I was just discharged from the hospital this evening. My surgery went extremely well, I’ve had no complications. However, I was not prepared for the level of pain. Make sure you stay on top of your pain management! I ran out of meds overnight and woke up in a world of hurt. BUT, walking helps. I did 40 laps around the hospital floor yesterday and 34 today. It’s painful but it’s gonna be what helps the most. I intend to keep up the walking and hopefully things will be calmer in a couple of days.

      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.
