So today I signed my consent form and got my surgery date for May 8th. Tomorrow I start my pre op diet and I'm excited and nervous at the same time. It's a big decision but I'm ready for it. Any suggestions? I've tried the Tripact vanilla latte protein shake with almond milk and I like it. I hope I still like it after surgery. Would love to hear about everyones experience whether it be pre op or post op.

Omg you're so lucky Ive only lost 10 . I walk everywhere and been taking stairs. But I also have been on my menstrual so idk if that makes a difference. Yesterday I weighed 203. When I started the pre op I was 213.

Had my surgery in New York on Star Wars day! (May 4th) So far so good. A lot of acid but hopefully as days go by it'll subside.

Had my surgery at New York Presbyterian, performed by Dr. Afaneh. One of the first doctors to use robotics while performing VSG's. He said the surgery couldn't have gone any more perfect.

To everyone awaiting there surgery, it's going to be tough. Your throat is going to hurt because of the breathing tube, you're going to feel very groggy because you're pumped with many meds prior and during surgery. You might ask yourself "wth did I get myself into?" because I am not afraid to admit I asked myself. But, it will get better as days pass.

Plus to boost your spirits, my surgeon said May is one of the best months to have surgery. Perfect weather to go on walks.

Good luck everyone and speedy recovery! [emoji173]️
