Anyone scheduled for December yet?



Recommended Posts

Hi All, just joined this forum and I am excited to connect with you all. I believe that these groups are necessary to keep morale up and help during the rough times. My VSG surgery is December 20th. It has all gone so fast since I made the decision and I can't believe I'll be starting my pre-op diet on December 6th. Looking forward to getting to know you all.

Dec 20th here. I will start my liquid diet on Dec 6th. It will be rough considering I work in a restaurant. I’m surrounded by food all day.

Dec. 11th here! Getting anxious! I Know what you mean about being around food at work, my job has a catered lunch every day! :0

For those of us scheduled in December, are you eating like there is no tomorrow or are you trying to be good before you start your pre-op diet. I go day by day, sometimes binge eating and sometimes fasting.

I don’t understand why some doctors require it and others don’t . I was going to do surgery through insurance in nj but there was an exclusion , so now doing it self pay In Florida . No doctor didn’t require 2 weeks of liquids before but Florida doctor does

I haven’t been binging, but we do visit favorite restaurants on date nights and I’m making a lot of my favorites for thanksgiving. I’ve tried to be conscious of when I feel full and am trying to stop then rather than “cleaning my plate”. My surgery is the 14th, so December 1st is the day I start my Pre-Op diet. I’m blessed that I do not have to do a liquid diet like most, but rather a low carb, low fat diet.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
