So here I sit in a hospital gown waiting to get all hooked up for my surgery. It is an exciting and nervous time. I just hope all goes well and I can start my new life. God bless everyone having surgery today and their surgeons. See ya on the flip side!

Me and you Jeff.. I'm headed to the hospital shortly.. See you on the losers bench

Everything went well, not too much pain. Leak test in the morning. Can't wait to have a drink, so parched.

That's great! Good luck and on to a speedy recovery!

I leave in an hour and a half for my surgery. I am completely calm. Weird? I am so excited to start my new life!! Good luck everyone!!!

Sending good vibes and prayers to all our Feb. 6th sleevers and those recovering!

Sitting at the hospital just waiting to be called back. I've got to get these nerves under control

Friends - I have had a protein shake break through! My doctor had created his own line of protein powers (among other things) and I was too cheap to buy them before. I have been so miserable on my liquid diet, i decided to go for it. Best thing I've done! Tons of great flavors... The honestly don't taste healthy, haha. They are low carb and PACKED with vitamins! Check them out... http://www.bariatricfusion.com/

Carrie P - woo hoo! Your deductible is fantastic and I'm excited that your insurance is covering it! Hope to have surgery in late February.

Right now' date=' this all-consuming obession with VSG is getting the best of me! I'm making myself crazy with research, planning, and prepping for surgery. And its THREE MONTHS AWAY! I feel like a crazy woman....there are nights I can't fall asleep for thinking about this! Ha ha! Worse than a little kid - he he....

The time really will go fast it really helped a lot to go to YouTube and watch some of the success stories on there .. It kept me strong and made me realize I want what they have and that kept me from going out of my freaking mind...lol good luck and stay strong...

So it turns out I had a small hiatal hernia that they repaired. Its leaving me feeling like I can't drink water properly. I keep being air in and trying to burp the pain away. Still have a lot of bloating. Really need more walking.
