So my VSG is scheduled for April 7.  Start my pre op liquid on Sunday.  I'm excited and also nervous.  Don't want to lose my hair!  Anyway I have a long journey ahead.  Please just be with me on it!

I'll be here to cheer you on. From what I've read the first few days of the liquid diet can be hard, but start to get easier around day 4.

Congrats!  I hear you on the hair thing. That's my fear... To lose my hair!  It's quite long!

You can do it!  Everything will rock.  

I decided to go with the whole hair loss thing and just shave my head for cancer research at the 6 week mark.  I'm totally excited and it's nice to not be worried about losing my hair :D

You must permanently change your lifestyle if you want your weight loss to be permanent. You can do it!

I'm set for April 7th as well! I've been on the pre-op liquids since last Friday. It hasn't been as bad as I thought it would - definitely get creative with your shakes. SF Torani syrups from World Market and PB2 peanut butter powder have been a lifesaver. Plus, I'm motivated since I've lost 10 pounds doing it. :)

Good luck to you!

April:  HW- 323, SW-310, CW-159 (as of 9/25/15), Goal- 140; Pre-op (-13), M1 (-17), M2 (-16), M3 (-14), M4 (-13), M5 (-12), M6 (-8), M7 (-12), M8 (-8), M9 (-8), M10 (-5), M11 (-7), M12 (-5), M13 (-7), M14 (-0), M15 (-1), M16 (-5), M17 (-5)
