It is good that you feel that way. I believe it will be my best option, considering the odds. It was suggested by 1 of my surgeons that the surgeries be combined, if the other agrees. I would only have to be put under once, and only 1 recovery time.

Best wishes on your sleeve surgery. Let me know how you do.

I probably won't feel ready till they roll me into surgery. Did I fold the sheets? Did I buy enough Protein Drink? 😁

I am having my VSG at Blossom in Las Vegas in mid August. It is less than 6 weeks away. Getting nervous, but very excited.

It's understandable to be nervous. 6 weeks is just around the corner. I hope all goes well.

I am scheduled for August! I don’t have an exact day just yet I’ve finished all my appointments I just need to lose 23 more pounds which my nutritionist said with the Preop diet I should lose that. I’m hoping in the next week or so I’ll get a confirmed surgery date.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
