My VSG is scheduled for January 7th, 2019. I have to get it done before school starts up, which is January 14th. Is anyone else celebrating getting a surgery date like I am!?

I’m January 10th! I was hoping to get mine done over our winter break but it didn’t work out. But I’m happy that I at least got a date!
Congratulations! Are you excited?
When does your winter break end?
I was hoping for something a little sooner because I wanted a least two weeks to heal before school started but oh well, one week will have to be enough!

January 16th here - I was hoping for a December date, but thanks to my insurance requiring a specific hospital, January it is. Ironically, I start the presurgical diet on New Years Day - quite the new years resolution! :)

Congratulations, everyone! I have a day tracker on my phone counting down the days and I’ve been trying to not pay attention to it in hopes of that making seem like time is going faster. 😂😂

Me too! I'm officially under the 30 day mark! My friends and family keep saying that it seems like time has passed by quickly since I decided to have surgery, but I feel like this last month is going to drag! I still have a lot of things I need to do before surgery (take 2968934892 before pics, buy post-op food, etc.), so hopefully that will give me something to do in the meantime.

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
