I think you need to make an appointment with your surgeon. It sounds like there are lots of questions you should have asked him before hand that you didn't. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hey there! My recommendation is to get on a computer to fill out all of your profile information. That's what I did. Nice to meet you! I'm Kimberly, 31 and having the sleeve surgery on June 9. I have 2 kids, boys ages 10 and 7! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

If you can schedule any of your other appointments during the 6 month wait it will fly by. I did my psych eval, preop and nutrition classes, support group visits during my 6 month wait. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

When I leave the hospital I will be on protein shakes. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Girl I feel you. The anticipation is crazy!!! I spend so much time here, looking at VSG accounts on Instagram or on Facebook in a couple WLS groups. I know your not supposed to wish time away but sometimes I really wish I could fast forward time. I have been using this time though to get prepared. Each week when I go grocery shopping I buy some chicken broth, unsweetened applesauce, Protein Shakes and other supplies so that I don't have to buy so much at once.
