  1. Got an answer. Can't fall below the 40. They will weigh me right before surgery. I told my surgeon about my concern and he said he would only have me do a few days pre op diet so that I wouldn't lose too much. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  2. I know I can ask this of my surgeon tomorrow but wanted to see if anyone had any thoughts. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  3. Hi, I am new here. I am pre-op, and pretty sure the sleeve is the way we are going soon. I have my consult next week. I have a couple of questions: Soda/carbonated beverages/beer: never again? Low carb diet forever? No caffeine forever? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  4. I have no co-morbidities, surprisingly. But yeah, I don't have the waiting period. Good point though about the approval- that should come before the pre-op diet, making it a non issue. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    When to schedule?

    No advice, but I am in the same boat. There is just never a good time I am afraid. I travel a lot for work, and we vacation a lot through the summer. I am desperately trying to coordinate and schedule for when I can have 4 free weeks to recover......without waiting forever! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Thanks. Just what I was looking for. I have a close friend with RNY so her directions are different from what I am facing. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Nervous about surgery

    I've yet to fully tell my husband... don't feel like hearing" Extreme measures "for failure speech... again... so I truly understand the hesistation... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G530AZ using the BariatricPal App I hear you. I was really afraid how my husband would react. I was pleasantly surprised when he saw I was serious. I had brought up the subject before casually and met with disdain. Maybe somehow now he realizes how much I have had it with this struggle. I am hoping that I will be the catalyst for HIM to get WLS too. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
