    Hi there, I'm also having a VSG done July 1. I'm filled with anticipation and anxiety at the same time. I can't wait to be done with the Cpap. High BP, bad knees and overall feeling like crap..

Hello! Leaving for the hospital in about 6 hours. I'm mostly excited, but a little anxious too.
I'm pretty sure that most surgeons wanted the long holiday weekend off too! LOL

Wishing you a smooth and safe surgery Alex76 and speedy recoveries to you post ops!!!![emoji175][emoji175]

Alex76, good luck today!! You’ve got this!! The nerves went away as soon as they gave me Versed and were wheeling me to OR asking about my babies. Great way to fall asleep...

Good luck...i'm sending lots of good vibes and prayers :)

Beginning day 6 of my pre op Liquid meals, no longer suffering from hunger pains. Never really paid attention to how many food commercials there are! Have to keep switching channels to avoid them! Lol Surgery is July 12th for gastric bypass, so it’s getting close. Reading all the post and encouragement and information is really helpful. Thank you all! Any Delaware folks here? Well enjoy your 4th festivities!!

I'm on day 2 of the liquid diet and so far it's not bad. I really don't have to be around people eating since I work nights and sleep during the day...and I actually lost about 3.5 lbs of fluid after day 1.

Good morning!

Also doing great, nicely IV medicated for pain, nausea and gas. Ate 2 cups of ice chips to earn a popsicle, lol. Delighted with the care I'm receiving. Still bloated from surgery, but I did pack my biggest clothes for this probability.
