I'm now 6 weeks away from my surgery date. This coming week is psych appointment, week after, first nutrition. I find I'm less concerned about the surgery than I am about the post op diet. I have a number of friends who have had bypass surgery and from the same doctor who is doing mine. I'm spending most of my time reading on the post op diet page. I know once I'm into it, I'll be fine, but the anticipation is big.
