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!?

Glad you got to go home, now the next phase of your life starts, keep us updated as you go into losing mode.

Day 3 of new me. I feel good if I dont move. Sitting still I feel like nothing happened. Standing, or going to a sit of stand, it's very painful. Walking is about a 3 on the pain scale but I can manage it with pain meds.

I just cant get over the... what hunger. I feel no need for food. It's so weird not to be hungry( wish it stayed) .

How long does the not being hungry last?

Hi, yeah day 3 for me was pretty much similar but walking is good to rid of gas. I still feel no hunger it’s mostly mental. I love it

That's so good to hear Debbie Moore! I'm also day three! I don't have much pain unless I bend, standing and sitting still punches a bit, no hunger here at all just being mindful to keep sipping! But the anxiety is overwhelming I feel like I am going insane and I'm doomed! Help!!!

Anxiety of what?

I ventured out today to Walmart. Needed more protein shakes and cream soups. Not allowed to eat pudding or Jello so that's ok. But can have sugerfree popcicles. Found the tropical flavors. No lifting makes it kind of fun. Hubby had to lift the stuff and carry in. ( evil grin)

i asked this question in a FB group the other day. The answers ranged from 3 days to 18 months plus. The majority seemed to have quite a long time before any kind of hunger returned

I had my sleeve Jan.15,2019.. and i feel like i need to make myself eat. I'm just not hungry. I'm drinking my water and also got this protien2o water.. just wondering how long the not feeling hungery will last.

I had my gastric sleeve done at Blossom Bariatrics/Warm Springs Surgical Center in Las Vegas, NV on 1/24/19. Starting to feel much better. I’m excited to lose this weight for the final time and never look back.

It was impeccable. I’m a registered nurse with a background in pre-op/post-op, so I went in ready to critique lol. I came home with absolutely no complaints. They were stellar in every aspect of my care.

Thank you for the feedback I am glad to hear everything went well. I wish you continued success in your recovery.

I’m scheduled for this wednesday the 6th...???

Ladies I will be officially 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I am so over broth my surgeon told me to try an egg and I can do scrabbles but not boiled mashed up. I am scared to introduce new stuff I know I have too. Anyone that is at this stage what have you tried?
