Well, it is here. I must say 3 months went quickly.

I’m drinking Clear Liquids only today and then at 6pm I have to do the dreaded prep. I guess the bathroom will be where I spend most of the night...

I don’t know why I need to clear out my colon for VSG but I will comply...

Pain meds tend to block you up pretty badly, so you'll be happy you don't have a poop backlog to process!

Anyway, best wishes on your surgery and hoping you have a speedy recovery!

I didn't have to do any prep. I'm glad that sounds like it would suck. Good luck! You'll make it :-)

Got the call earlier that I have to be there at 530 AM. Hospital is one hour away so 430 AM we leave.

I guess I will be setting my alarm for 339 AM?! Dear Lord!

I was hoping to go early but not THAT early! Yikes

Hi all! I made it with flying colors.

I stayed the one night and now I am home.

It was easier than I expected. I’m sore but not that bad.

Gas pains were minor but I did walk an awful lot so maybe that helped.

Best wishes to all!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
