I finally got a date for my VSG. It is September 11, 2008. Start my supplements on August 28, 2008.

What happened?

I'm sorry they moved your date. When was your origninal date? Mine is the 19th. Its only 6 more days dont worry.. Goodluck!

Congrats on having your surgery date. It took me 10 months to get approval from my insurance. I had to meet with a dietician and my doctor monthly for 6 months so I thought I was ready. On the day of my surgery, I was really nervous...not so much about the procedure, but how different my life would be afterwards. It is scary to make this kind of commitment. While my family is still enjoying the foods that they like, right now I am on a liquid diet. For me, it is a really strange I eat my broth with added unflavored Unjury and I am so full after about 2-3 ounces that I feel like I have just left an all you can eat buffet. I'm not really craving food like I did before the procedure..just remember that the liquid and mushy diet is a part of the healing process. I had the lapband on Aug 7, 08..so I am only 6 days post op and I have lost 8 pounds. So far, I feel great - my energy level has returned. I have a little soreness around the surgical incisions, but I have not taken anything for the pain for 3 days. My blood pressure is good and my glucose is normal..I have no regrets because I know I'm starting my new "beginning" - a healthier me. Please let me know how you are doing. Best Wishes.

Great!!! I will be adding you to my prayer list. At least we are both from GA too bad it is 4 hours away. Martinez is near Augusta and Ft. Gordon. Everything is going to be great for all of us. August 25 will be a the start of a new era. Linda
