  1. I am 8 days post op and I am a little worried that I too do not have any problem with water and 6 oz of yogurt go down just fine. I hope that the full feeling will kick in when I eat solid food again.

    Four days post-op

    I had strong cramping and it went away the next day. I am 6 days out and no more pressure or pain. Hope this happens the same way for you.

    How is your pre-op diet going?

    Wow doing ok on liquids so far. I find am allergic to fake sugars. I will be on clear liquids for 3 days after surgery and liquid for two weeks then soft food. Still getting nervous. Just the unknown I guess.

    How is your pre-op diet going?

    Hi everybody. Just wanted to join in and say. The toughest thing for me during this liquid diet is knowing it will last 6 weeks. I hope I can loose a couple pounds before surgery. Trying to prepare for surgery. Not sure what I need for the clear liquid diet part as far as clear protein.
  6. My surgery is Oct 7. I am really nervous and worried about leaks and blood clots. But to combat this I try to focus on all the positive things in my future. The two week liquid diet is putting me to the test. I am so glad that most people are glad to help and answer our questions. Good luck to you.

    Any October sleevers?

    My date is Oct 7. Start preop diet monday. Good luck to my fellow Oct sleevers!
  8. I am shocked to learn my insurance approved the surgery. Now at 52 I am so excited to start my journey. Not sure of date yet. I just wanted to thank everybody for all the great information and confidence to do this.

    over 50 VSG preop blues

    Hello I am new to the VSG world. I am learning that preop prep is more than I expected. I found out my insurance requires 6 month preop diet. 6 months feels like a long time to wait at my age. Will the insurance approve me after the 6 months??? Will I change my BMI to fall under 40?? Lots to think about. Any help is appreciated.
