  8. I had my VSG on Friday 8/17...currently on 7-10 day liquid diet. I can tolerate all that I am intaking I.e slim fast, Water, crystal lights, pudding, Jello. Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't thrown up..no nausea I feel great. Lord I hope my tool is working. I don't want to have to get anything readjusted (if that's even possible with the sleeve) talk to me. Yes I know we are all different. I need this weight to drop. Oh & I am not complaining at all!! I'm glad I'm not sick, but just would like to hear if this is common. xo

  11. Hey guys and dolls, So I am sooo happy I went with a single incision for VSG. 2 days out and it looks wonderful. So if you wanted to see the outcome of a SI here it is. xo
  12. Hello folks! Surgery went great but not getting enough fluids in..Dr ordered me to stay until 2morrow. A little discomfort, I vomited blood and they were concerned but everything is great. Up walking which is annoying bcos I'm sleepy..lol..No "number 2" yet or pass of gas but I do burp often. I pray that this period gets overly quickly. Thank you for all your prayers- Talk to u all soon! muah xo

  14. Surgery tomorrow arrival time 6am procedure 7:30am. Keep me in prayer. xo
  15. ME TOO!! Aug 17th-..Our life will change for the best. God bless you during your prosecute and may we BOTH have a speedy and smooth recovery/adjustment to a our new lifestyle! xo
  16. August 17th will be here next friday! I'm slightly nervous...Maybe because my family is a mess. I don't speak to my grandparents and barely speak to my mother. My grandfather is a very evil man. I was residing with them but now I stay with friends & uncle. Hopefully I'll have a apt before VSG so I can have a peaceful place to come to afterwards. I can not and will not be in a stressful enviormemt. Anyway, I had my pre surgery testing. Blood work..EKG..everything tested good. My surgeon doesn't require a liquid diet. Only something 24hrs before actually surgery. So I'm heading into this cold turkey. *sigh* I pray I make it thru the procedure and that I get the peace & happiness I desire. Keep me in prayers.- Yay new ME in 10 days! lol...
  17. Question! So on August 17th I will be going for my VSG. I've come across many post talking about the infamous "liquid diet" before their surgery takes place. Is this something that everyone must do before their VSG? When did your office give you your diet? I received my date on 7/12 and haven't heard anything yet. So I'm just curious to know, did you receive a pre-op diet and if so how soon? And Yes I know every dr is different. Thanks for the feed back. xox
