Thanks everyone, So far im not to nervous, but im sure I will become more nervous as it gets closer. I've been getting things ready also, stocking up on vitamins. I am a little concerned about how long I will be off of work, seeings how it seems to vary so much from person to person. Hopefully I will heal fast :)

I'm scheduled for RNY same day. Are you getting nervous yet? I haven't experienced that yet, but I am considering just what I need to get done before surgery. I'm a stained glass artist and I have two projects I'm trying to get done. I'm also trying to buy what I need for my protein needs, without going overboard because I may not tolerate certain things. I'm also washing clothes, cleaning, etc., so I can come home to a clean house....blah, blah, blah. It'll be here before we know it!!!!

Hi all - my VSG is for the 9th March - I'm having it done at the American Hospital in Dubai. The surgeon said no need for a pre-op diet which is just as well as I have visitors arriving next Tuesday who will be here with us until the day of my op.
Looking forward to sharing experiences with you all.
