Two week countdown!



Recommended Posts

Two weeks today I’ll be getting my VSG. Excited, impatient and anxious in equal measures I guess!

First day of liquids today but vaguely followed it for an extra 2 weeks before albeit with a proper meal PM. Amazed how much better it’s made me fee already so bring on the post surgery life 😃

Mine is April 25th and I started my Clear liquid diet (albeit Protein Shakes) 6 days ago. The first couple were Brutal due to detoxing. I had played around with doing it before. Now that I'm 6 days out I barely feel hunger, however I did get 118 oz of Fluid in yesterday, 12 from black coffee, 32 from Powerade Zero, 22 from Premier Protein, and 5-16.9 bottles of Water. All the fluid plus my Vitamins and meeting my protein intake, make me not very hungry. Plus the more I drink the more water weight I lose.

So excited your surgery is so close to mine!! Good luck on your journey. Keep us posted!! :D

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
