I will start my Pre Op Liquid Diet November 9 and I bought some cream soups and stuff but I am wondering if somebody could help me ( if you remember ) what kind of soups, protein shakes,puddings you bought? Like I got today some fat free sugar free puddings and jello's ,natural not sugar added apple sauce,sugar free crystal light, some fat free camp bells soups. I need to get a protein powder and chewable multivamins ??? where??? I bought some Citrate ( calcium 600 mg with vitamin D chewable ) What else do I need? Do I need to start taking B12 as well? And the multivitamins has to have Iron? I hope I can make it within this pre op liquid diet Any suggestions would be appreciated !!! Also where do I going the november slivers group??? My surgery date is November 23rd. TIA

I have surgery date ,hopefully I can get my VSG if I can convince my surgeon that RYN is not for me. My questions is for those who are post op 1 year or more. Do you think you can eat a bit more than when you were 6 months post op? Or are you eating the same amount of food as when you were 6 months post op? How soon do you get full,with how many oz of liquids or food? I know everybody is different so I willing to read different opinions here TIA

NOVEMBER 23 IS MY LUCKY DAY!!!!!!! Sorry I am jumping up and down,up and down LOL

There are several military facilities that do the sleeve. For sure BAMC in Ft Sam Houston San Antonio do the sleeve. I am waiting to be call with for my Pre Op appointment and surgery date. Where do you live right now? are you able to travel to San Antonio?

Your belly looks so round,so beautiful.

Thank you so much for your input

So I been reading and a surgeon told me today that won't perform a VSG on me because I have GERD and the VSG could make the GERD even worse. He is trying to push on me the RYN. For those you have or had GERD,how is it now after the surgery? Is it better? worst? and How long ago you had surgery? Thanks!

My name is Lilly and my husband is active duty army and I am in the process to get approved for the VSG . We are stationed in San Antonio,TX

I don't have a surgery date yet I need to be done with 2 support groups and then call the clinic to get a date Good luck!!! wow November is almost there

Ok so I almost done with my pre op checklist . I was wondering if there anyone on here that had surgery done at BAMC Ft Sam Houston in San Antonio that could contact me. I would like to know about your surgery experiences there.Thanks!

Oh no I don't have a surgery date yet. I am starting with my seminars now in August. I wish you the best of luck this 8 I will keep researching and let you know

You know I been about to go and check my eyes ,I will Thanks!!

I been diagnosed with PCOS for a few years now. I was wondering if any of you have PCOS and after the VSG surgery has improved? I am doing some research online if this surgery would help with my PCOS among other health issues I have. I know loosing weight improves the PCOS symptoms but I would like to know any experiences here. Thanks!

Hello I have migraines non stop,no matter what I take its still there. I have my first info seminar about WLS in August. My question is has VSG helped out with your migraines after the surgery,if you had any? Thanks@@

Cheers for the info

Hello, I am researching about the VSG. I have to go to my surgery information seminar this August 10. I will be getting my surgery in a military facility . How many of you had this surgery on a military facility? Also I still confused about if RYN will be my option or VSG. But I am more towards the VSG. My BMI is 37,but I have many health problems now. Including GERD,PCOS,fatty liver ,Insulin resistant among others. I would like to read how this surgery helped you with one of these conditions ,if you have one of these? Thanks!
