  1. Just had my surgery on Monday and everything went perfect.

    I haven't been hungry except today I'm feeling tired and my mind is telling me to get something in me.

    I had my VSG in Mexico and the doctors guidelines are Clear liquids for 7 days post op - broth Jello Water is basically all I've been eating.

    Next week it's supposed to be Protein shakes and Soups that are strained. This seems a little excessive in restriction as many people are on purée after a week or so.

    What was your diet guidelines after?


  2. I'm less than a month away and absolutely can't wait to start seeing some results. I'm a big guy - 6'3" and 490 pounds. You know it's officially time to have the VSG when you have sleep apnea, high blood pressure.. And the most embarrassing thing was going into the local big and tall store and not having a dress shirt that would fit me!!! I carry most of my weight around my stomach which is not good for a dress shirt.

    Here's a few of the things I'm looking forward to

    Lower my blood pressure

    Get rid of sleep apnea

    Live longer

    Feel better

    Go to sporting events, concerts and movies and be comfortable/fit in the seats

    Fly on an airplane comfortably

    Travel the world

    Climb stairs without being winded

    Buy clothes at normals stores for normal prices

    Take on new career opportunities

    Get a relationship, get busy more often.

    Look better
