Hi all. I just discovered this app and want to say hello. I'm going in on Wednesday morning for VSG. I am not on any specific pre-op diet, but instructed not to gain/overindulge. I'm going to Dr. Atkinson in Las Vegas. I'm a little in shock this is happening in less than 48 hours, but feel as ready as I will ever be. I started the process at the end of May, was supposed to go September/October but was ultimately scheduled for 11/23 because of delays at my PCP. My daughter tested positive for Covid on 11/12, which sent me into quarantine until 11/27. After my negative test and some updated labwork I am back on for 12/23. So it's been a process to say the least. I wish everyone a easy and meaningful journey to the 'losers bench' and look forward to seeing you on the other side.

Welcome. Lots of great information here & lots of helpful advice. So sorry your surgery was delayed but very happy tomorrow is your day.

My surgery was the best decision & I’m sure yours will be too.

Good luck.

PS. Hope your daughter is ok.

Glad you found us! This is a great resource for all the info your surgeon doesn't tell you... Feel free to ask questions. I hope your surgery goes well!
