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!?

Had my surgery 1/15.

How is everyone that has had it so far feeling?
Is anyone else having any mental hunger? Like I look at food and I would love to eat it but I'm also not physically hungry at all.

Would love to hear how everyone else is doing, it's nice to know you're not the only one going through these lifestyle changes.

Surgery Monday for me too! Not nervous, just anxious for it to be done!

Surgery tomorrow, 1/21, so I booked a hotel, here in Annapolis, so I don't have to travel tomorrow. Hospital says to be there at 0530.

Best of luck to us all.

I had surgery a week before you and can definitely relate, but it's gotten better. I went to the store today and it was surprisingly easy to ignore the food I couldn't have. I looked at it all as I was searching for what I needed, but didn't give it a second thought and kept on moving.

Mine is tomorrow too. Today I am really hungry but I also did ok on the liver diet. This weekend I've been "nervous cleaning" Particularly during food commercials. I keep getting up and cleaning, sorting, organizing away.

Congratulations!!!!

Anyone else going in the towards the end of this month? I am scheduled for a January 25, bypass.
