Anyone getting any advice to make your process smoother? Like simple stuff:
-Walk
-Follow nutritional guidelines
-Start walking before surgery even
-Bring a pillow to hold your stomach when you cough/ride home
-Chapstick

My surgery is next Tuesday, February 7th. This is my 7 day of liquid diet. 3 premium Protein shakes a day and 64oz of Water. I drink a cup of low sodium broth in the evening. I'm also allowed sugar free Jello before surgery. I've lost 12 lbs since Saturday. I met with my doctor's yesterday and the pre-op papers were a little scary. But doctor's reassuring in the low risk outcomes they have had and it made me feel better. I was measured, pictures taken and given hugs by the office staff. Everybody is so supportive. Getting through each day fine. Only 4 more days until surgery! Excited and anxious but I'm seeing this through. No turning back. I've waited for over 6 months for this day. Our doctor's office has support groups, classes and offers you a mentor. Mine text me immediately after my pre-op class and told me she was there for me and what to expect after surgery. Very nice to have someone who has been walking the same journey. She's lost 120 pounds! Less than a year. She will come meet me for the first time surgery morning. Good luck to all you February sleepovers! I will let you know how it goes!

I'm on day 3 of 2-week pre-op diet. Not bad at all... 4 Protein shakes and two Lean Cuisine or Healthy Choice meals (certain ones). 2/13 VSG - starting to get a little nervous!!!

I wanted to join that group when I saw it, but I don't want my Facebook acquaintances to know I was doing it. Glad I found this forum!

My date is set for February 28. This is my second attempt at WLS. I did the band in 2013 but had it removed two months later.
