It is good that you feel that way. I believe it will be my best option, considering the odds. It was suggested by 1 of my surgeons that the surgeries be combined, if the other agrees. I would only have to be put under once, and only 1 recovery time.

Best wishes on your sleeve surgery. Let me know how you do.

I probably won't feel ready till they roll me into surgery. Did I fold the sheets? Did I buy enough Protein Drink? 😁

I am having my VSG at Blossom in Las Vegas in mid August. It is less than 6 weeks away. Getting nervous, but very excited.

It's understandable to be nervous. 6 weeks is just around the corner. I hope all goes well.

I am scheduled for August! I don’t have an exact day just yet I’ve finished all my appointments I just need to lose 23 more pounds which my nutritionist said with the Preop diet I should lose that. I’m hoping in the next week or so I’ll get a confirmed 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.
