Surgery OCT 27th eek!

I'm almost there!!! I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. I'm reading everything I can and going to support groups and just soaking up everything I possibly can. Any last minute advice I should know about? I'm prepared for the liquid stage but not quite for the puréed stage. I have my chewable vitamins and all my protein shakes and protein powder. Also, I was reading the Big Book on VSG and it says my goal weight should be much smaller than what I was thinking was realistic for me anyone else have opinions on this?

  • You should calculate your BMI, it should be between 18.5 and 24.5 to be considered at a normal healthy weight. Any more than that and you are overweight. I'm shooting for a BMI of 21.5 or for me at

Mine didnt go well. I had to get a room monday night and traveled to the hospital with some family. Got up at 430 am to head to hospital and got everything done and ready for surgery and it was cancelled due to my skin allergies. I had a small breakout that overnight got worse and was all over my stomach so now im getting cleared up with my allergist and have to wait to reschedule...bblllaahhh...trying to keep a positive attitude on it...so how did yours turn out...how are u feeling

Aww I'm sorry it got cancelled. Hopefully you can reschedule for sooner rather than later. Mine went great I stayed 3 nights in the hospital bc I wasn't able to drink enough and had bad nausea. But I'm home now and things are getting much better
