I was much more nervous earlier on. I feel much more confident and happy about the surgery the closer it gets.

Agreed! I had some chicken broth and it was like heaven!

Hi, I've been on the pre op since the 22nd. It's getting easier the longer I'm on it.

I ended up ordering the Gabrialla Breathable Elastic Abdominal Binder for Women (9" Wide) It was only $28 on amazon. I will see how it does. Thanks everyone!

Are you taking Biotin. It happened to me from that.

Hi did any of you use an abdominal binder after surgery? If so, what ones? Did it rub against the incisions?

Had my last pre op appointment today before surgery. Sept 4th can't come soon enough....I'M STARVING!

Thank you for the spanks and belly binder info

Where do you find a compression wrap?

Hi Barisaxylady, I start my pre op diet tomorrow. Drinking a lot of Protein shakes. I use Dymatize which I love, it's actually yummy, I get it from Amazon. I already use it for Breakfast a lot. Excited and nervous for my surgery. I'm on facebook if you want to friend me. I'm on there more than here. www.facebook.com/vsg.rachel

What is a laser bra lift? I'm going to need stuff done after my vsg. I'm scheduled for sept 4th. With a 44H I'm sure I'm going to have to do something with my boobs after I lose all my weight!

Hi, My name is Rachel. I have my Vsg scheduled for Sept 4th. Just wondering if there are any other Maryland Sleevers on here?

I was going to add you as a friend on here, but I don't know how from my phone. I'm on Facebook. www.facebook.com/vsg.rachel

Mine is scheduled for September 4th. I start my preop diet this Tuesday!

I don't start my 2 week preop diet until 8/21. My surgery is Sept 4th at University of Maryland Medical Center w/ Dr. Mark Kligman. The approved the protein mix that I've been using for years, so that's great! It actually taste good. I use Dymatize. Piña Colada is my favorite so far. Yum!

Thanks everyone! I'm 29, 260lb, 5'5.5''

Finally a date! September 4th!!!!!!!! I want to scream it to the world except for the fact that I'm only telling immediate family. That messes up my screaming it to the world plans. My 30th Birthday is August 23rd and I start my preop diet the 21st. Oh well...I'm ready to start my 30's thinner
