Karen44,

Hi. It is hard to follow one person on here, wished I knew how, so please share if you know. I would be happy to chat back and forth.

My surgery date is the 27th, seems like a life time away. I just received all my paperwork, pre-op, surgery instructions, post-op diet. So it is getting real.......

Where are you having your surgery, etc...... ? Just know we are doing what is right for us.....

im in San Antonio at the Methodist hospital. I know it seems like the time is dragging but it starts to move along once you are in the last month. I am at peace with my decision to move forward with this surgery because I have exhausted all other options. I start my pre op diet of 2protein shakes and one small meal a say on Monday 6/2. I can't wait to get on the other side of the surgery, where are you in Texas? It is hard to follow one person but I have responses going to my email so I can follow that way.

My surgery is June 4th.... Six days to go!!! I'm so scared and nervous. It's real, it's life changing (yes, I did know that). Just all coming together faster than I imagined. So many unknowns... Anyone else feeling like this?

Yes! My date is June 4th as well. Seems like most say they are excited but I am more in the scared category and wondering if I am making the right decision. Just cant stop worrying about nausea, complications, and trying to drink Protein Shakes. I am also very unprepared and have bought nothing much yet from the store for either myself or my family. Seems like May has been a very busy month around here with softball/baseball games, etc. Planning to do a bunch of shopping this weekend but have no clue what kind of Protein Shake to try next. I only tried Premium Protein chocolate ready made shake and I thought it was nasty. That was disappointing since it seemed to get pretty good reviews. Think I am going to try the Syntrax Nectar stuff next, My doctors office carries that one and they have sample packs for 1.75. Anyone else tried those? I am also thinking I should get something unflavored that I can try to mix in with broth, yogurt, etc.

Yes- mine is June 20th. Soooo excited! Yet, nervous too. What helps me with the fear though is the power of hope. I gave up after so many failures at losing weight. But I didn't realize how dead inside I felt from giving up. Sure, I know that my VSG won't solve all my problems. I have to work it. But the difference is - by analogy - the difference between having a boat to cross the river and trying to swim without one. Hope is a powerful thing!

Hi all!

Sticking with your decision I guess really depends on how prepared you are and how well your doctor and team have prepared you. I am more than confident because my team is so awesome. This liquid diet is no fun, but hey, I've lost like 7 lbs since starting it! You'll do great. Stay confident and stay connected here. This is the best thing ever for support from all over the world!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
