My surgery is the 12th of jan 2016. my dad had the surgery a year ago and was told he had to lose 5kg before it, i have the same surgeon but was only told to go on optifast for 2 weeks pre op. im nervous but excited at the same time. im curious to see who you guys are telling. ill be living out of home 3-4 weeks post op as thats when i start university so its going to be hard to settle into a share house without them knowing? i also have 2 good friends moving down aswell and i dont know whether to tell them or not. i just think itll be hard to explain why im only eating soft foods you know?
