1 day or 2 day stay, does it matter?
Hi all, I was approved for a 1 day stay and i'm wondering if i'll be well enough to leave after a day. What was your hospital stay? How did you feel a day after surgery?

Revenge Fantasies?
Remember that scene in Pretty Woman when she goes back to the store after those women were mean to her? Love it! Wondering if anyone had paid back anyone that treated you like crap, made fun of you, dismissed you when you were overweight. I mean the best revenge is living well but wondering if anyone has any interesting stories.

Things I will NOT miss about being fat.
Chub rub, Sweet mother of god, chub rub! Will be so happy when my thighs stop touching after weight loss TP being stuck in you after going to bathroom due to folds Sweating at the slightest bit Spending a fortune on limited, ugly plus size clothes

People don't really die from VSG right?
Oh i feel like i'll probably burst into tears at the hospital. This is the right step for me and I'm committed to doing the work but doesn't help with the nerves. I wonder of requesting a tour of the facility might help.

No deaths in the practice. Again highly capable surgeon. It's very reassuring but i'm still nervous as hell

Of course i know it's a risk and have had a robust conversation with my surgeon about the pros/cons but now that i've been approved and scheduled for October i feel excited but also terrified. Terrified of not waking up, complications etc...... My surgeon and hospital i'm using has an excellent track record but I can't shake this nervous feeling. Maybe it's because i've never had surgery. Hope it's just pre-surgery jitters.

Congrats those are amazing stats. Did you lose the 12 pounds before surgery with the liquid diet? Is the liquid diet that hard? Also, how was your recovery process. Just got approved for a 1 night stay and scheduled for end of October. Excited and Terrified at the same time.

Body changes to expect after VSG
Haven't ever been thin so wondering what kind of changes to expect? Obviously with the weight loss, I'm expecting things like being more nimble, thighs not rubbing together maybe dropping a shoe size etc. What else can I expect? Also did anyone experience an unexpected changes (either good or bad) from the weightless e.g being cold, change in taste etc Appreciate your feedback!

Well isn't this timely, I've just been approved for surgery. *crying tears of joy*- Submitted! Have Anthem Blue Cross, How Long?
I've been approved! I've been approved! I've been approved! I've been fretting all week and finally called insurance only to find out that I've been approved since Friday. Arghhh but yay!- Does anyone miss being overweight?
I love hearing from post-op folks. At the pre-op you keep second guessing yourself and wondering if VSG is really necessary. It's different for folks that have never been thin, I mean if I hated being overweight why did i put up with it for us long? I loathe everything about being fat but I do enjoy food. My post-op NSV other than the great things that come with losing weight would be eating to live and not craving food all the time.- What do you hate about being overweight?
Yes really! If you don't like the post don't contribute geez- What do you hate about being overweight?
