I have all my requirements done and approval in hand! My date is Oct. 22nd, I'm down 20 lbs from first visit and shooting for another 30 by surgery. My goal in the next 3 mo. Is adjusting my eating habits to that of a post-op (with more calls tho) I have been using post op recipes and trying to get used to no added carbs/sugar/salt and drinking regularly with no liquids 30min to either end of a meal. I used my 3 mo of insurance hoops to get in healthy habits and using the next 3 to get into VSG habits!

Im tentatively planning for Oct 27 in Tijuana with Dr Garcia...Anyone else planning for Tijuana that weekend? Of course im scared to death' date=' but its all good: im giving myself time for the pre op liver shrink and getting all my sh*t together! I've got some planning to do![/quote']

I'll be having surgery with Dr Garcia on the 25th. I'm going alone and am feeling apprehension mixed with excitement. I just bought my first canister of Protein, a bunch of gas x and ex lax for the pre-surgery "cleanse", and thought, "this is for real, I'm really doing this..."

October 15 here in Aus :-) I'm nervous but excited!

I am on Oct. 16...I have started on breakfast and dinner liquids...an eat a solid lunch...Best of Blessing to all the sleevers! :)

October 22nd here and super excited!!! Good luck everyone... I don't know about you but I'm ready to be a loser!

October 3rd!! I just went for my pre-admission stuff and got my post-op diet today. I get soft foods after 3 weeks and stay on soft foods for 3 weeks. On the first day of week 7 I get real food (which happens to be the day before thanksgiving!)

My pre-admission appt is tomorrow and I can't wait to ask the surgeon tons of questions that I've been thinking about for the last month. I haven't talked to my surgeon since he gave me my surgery date. I have 2 school age kids and a 12 month old and I didn't want them to wait in the waiting room while I'm in surgery. I'd much rather have them visit me after I've rested and start feeling better. I'm gonna talk to the surgeon about that tomorrow. Good Luck everyone :)
