    My new date is July 22nd! My original date was May 18th but they canceled the day of my preop I was provided that date two months prior and they flew by. Here I am waiting another two months

  • Yay, after reading these forums for the past year I can finally post! I'll be having my VSG on July 20th, which just happens to be my birthday!

Surgeon’s office called n rescheduled my pro op visit so now it’s a week sooner and this Wednesday and I’m nervous because I gained 10 pounds and am hoping he doesn’t cancel me. I’m a bit freaked out. I herniated six discs in the middle of my back and I spent 3 weeks sleeping upright in a chair because I could not lay down with out being in pain radiating around my ribs. So I could not exercise and am only no feeling better. Hopefully he is ok with this. Wish me luck!

My suggestion is start the liquid diet today before your appt and it should come right off. Just a thought

I am scheduled for. 7/14 too!
Yes!!! A surgery twin! I'm so excited!!!

I gained back about 10 pounds too because of my meds I was started on. I'm starting a liquid diet today to help me get the weight off. I hope it works. Could you start your liquid diet early?

Thank you so much your great! I am going to do shakes today and I have work and I figure I’ll do some laps around the desks today and I’ll be there alone so at least I won’t look crazy and then another walk with my daughter in the evening. I just don’t think I will loose much overnight. But my insurance already approved so I’m hoping he will be fine. He’s not a mean dr so it is what it is right.
