Tomorrow is the big day...

Well, it is here. I must say 3 months went quickly.

I’m drinking clear liquids only today and then at 6pm I have to do the dreaded prep. I guess the bathroom will be where I spend most of the night...

I don’t know why I need to clear out my colon for VSG but I will comply...

    Pain meds tend to block you up pretty badly, so you'll be happy you don't have a poop backlog to process! Anyway, best wishes on your surgery and hoping you have a speedy recovery!

  • I didn't have to do any prep. I'm glad that sounds like it would suck. Good luck! You'll make it :-)

Hi all! I made it with flying colors.

I stayed the one night and now I am home.

It was easier than I expected. I’m sore but not that bad.

Gas pains were minor but I did walk an awful lot so maybe that helped.

Best wishes to all!

Great news! Thanks so much for posting! Wishing you a quick complete recovery. I'm on for Monday 10/21.
