Hi Everyone! I just got home today from having my VSG surgery. I feel relieved that it is over and excited about all the new experiences ahead. I was wondering if I absolutely have to crush up my meds when I have no problems swallowing them one at a time. I'd appreciate any advice you have to offer.

I am laying here in the Hosital after getting Sleeved yesterday morning and my ftach is growling! Go figure!

That's awesome! I can't wait for that day. I just had my surgery today and I feel pretty good. Not as bad as I had convinced myself it would be!

Hopefully, I will adapt to the new life style and have some good results by the holidays. Maybe then they will see that it was all worth it ! Thanks for your support!

Thank you so much for your support. I really needed it!

My surgery is tomorrow morning 9/11 @ 8AM. My family members are calling and emailing me to cancel the surgery. They say I look fine. I had my son take a before picture this morning and I look anything but fine! Ha ha. I only told one family member about the surgery because I have teenagers that needed to be checked on while I am in the hospital. I am already scared enough without my family putting the pressure on to bail telling me all the bad things that could go wrong! I replied saying in my current condition...I don't want to drop dead and be buried in a piano box!

Hi...I am also on 9/11 and counting the days! I am having it done at Tufts in Boston.

I start my pre-op liquid diet tomorrow. My date is 9/11. My question is what about fiber? I know you can get what you need from protein, fluids and a vitamins...but a diet without fiber can't be good for your system. Can you take fiber supplements post-op VSG surgery?

Hi Everyone! I finally have my surgery date on 9/11/13. Of course my kids think the date is not the greatest. I am getting nervous and hope I have made the right decision. I find this site very helpful knowing there are so many people going through the same thing!
