Hi Vanessa24 congratulations to you and everyone if you that has upcoming surgery. I am 3 weeks post-op from VSG surgery so I am fairly new to this but I would share with you my experience so far with any of you if you like just message me or send a friend request good luck to you all!
Dr.Sebastien right? You're in good hands. I had looked into him years ago when I first thought about surgery and I lived in the area. I was raised in Daytona Beach.
I am looking forward to Wednesday and wouldn't mind comparing notes. My mom wants to have the VSG so I'll be able to tell her about it.

We are having surgery on the same day and the funny thing is, Dr. Marema was my first choice! Unfortunately his office was considered out of network for my insurance, so I decided to go with East Coast Bariatrics(ECB) in Daytona Beach. Dr. Marema's credentials are impeccable and I was not happy when I made the switch(I am definitely happy now though, ECB has been great).
I just shot you a friend request. I am having VSG but I would like to compare notes with you on here if that is okay.
Mine is a few weeks ahead on the 6th but is be more than happy to be your surgery buddy.

I'm having mine on the 6th, so I'm at the end of day 6. I can have 4 protein shakes a day and 1/2 cup of veggies. I can also have 64oz of water, G2, jello, popsicles, broth... I'm doing really well on it surprisingly. The first day was rough with headaches but those ended the second day and all is going well!! Good luck to all!!
I'm scheduled for surgery on August 11. I'm on day 5 of my pre op. I have to eat their food. Which consist of 800 - 900 calories. Best of luck everyone on your surgery.
