Problems Eating Meat, Anyone?

No need for you own PJ 's Because of IV you will not be able to wear your own gown or top. Hospital gowns snap on the sleeves for this reason. PJ pants or shorts Robe Slippers or favorite flip flops Of course personals bathroom ( pads or tampons) just incase

What Made You Choose Vsg Over The Other Procedures?
I choose VSG. Because there were No cutting Of the intestines for the malabsorption. Just remember this is a life style change; not a short term diet. Most all the reason we over eat is in our minds. This is where you have to commit to and remember to control. My DR put me on a 10 day pre op liquid diet; in those 10 days the first 4-5 were difficult; day 6 I was off diet coke and chocolate; no more cravings; even now day 10 post op: I don't crave them. Though when I look at them; it's like my hand wants to grab them; I have to slow down and think; you really see your habits once on liquid diet. My Dr does this: Pre op -10 day liquid diet. ( last 3 clear) Post op- 2 days Clear liquids 2 wks full liquids 2 wks puréed 2 wks soft foods Then regular food Each meal is 4 oz All DR. Are different. I stayed 2 nights in hospital. No complications so far. It is likely you will have gallbladder problems with any of these surgeries. Mine is ok so far. But I anticipate issues, based on knowledge of how things work.
