Topic: RE: Revision date!

I was shocked to find out I was approved for my revision today and scheduled for the 29th of this month!

I had vsg on 3-14-18. I'm so ready to get this thing going. It's not an easy fix and I know it'll be hard but i'm ready to take my life back!

I wont lie...i'm Scared! I know i've said that before but it's true.

does anyone have a certain bullet journal type thing you'd suggest? I'm looking for letter sized for a regular note book. I want to do it for at least 2-3 months....most likely a year. I've found some printable stuff on Etsy but i'm open to suggestions!

Topic: RE: Magic menu items

Not sure this will fit in with this since I am waiting on a revision but here is my fantasy meal atm.

Anything Mexican. I haven't been able to eat it in 7-8 months now. I miss it(and well all the flavors.)

breakfast: egg with a tiny bit of black beans and fajita seasoning.

lunch: a taco made with a cheese shell and tomatoes...oh and taco seasoned hamburger meat.

dinner would be a small piece of chicken breast, a faux rice(cauliflower) green chili casserole.

i miss quality food!lol

Thanks!

I hear you there! I have a few friends who?ve had WLS and they are great to talk with but we still don?t want to talk about it all the time.

The gerd was/is so bad I woke up chocking on acid more than once. My quality of food has made the depression worse too. I can?t do garlic, pepper, salt or much onion. I?m working on things constantly in my head.

Topic: RE: It?s getting real! - a little fearful

i have a tentative date, well week of surgery, set. I should find out more info Monday. It's looking like the week of Memorial Day.

i'm a wee bit afraid but not doubting this revision.

After the past 6-8 months I know I need something for this GERD. I'm still on a waiting list to see a specialist for BED. I had an appointment but had to cancel due to illness.

I will be the first to admit my eating has been less than stellar. I am a work in progress as we all are.

not sure what the point of this post is lol. I have very little people to talk to about this stuff.

I had terrible nausea the day or so after my VSG. Threw up everything that went down for 24 hours. Then everything was great. Until the acid started!

Thanks for the reply!

Topic: RE: Revision soon

i had VSG on March 18,2018.

Acid issues started in late July. Other stuff happened...ok a lot of other stuff. Had my gallbladder out in February hoping it'd help...which it didn't.

I don't have a date yet as the scheduler was out this last week. The surgeon is wanting it soon...May or June.

what advice could you share? I am not really nervous about the procedure but the differences in the after care. I am doing a lot of research but i'm Looking for personal experiences.

thanks!
