Hello all, I just joined yesterday and I'm so very excited to get some positive support and encuragement from the site. The liquid diet isn't as bad as I thought it would be:) There is only a few hours a day were I struggle mainly at lunch time. I have already lost 8 lbs in 6 days. WOW is all I can say.

I was supposed to be banned on Jan 26th but my pre-op tests showed some gallstones and they are going to remove my gallbladder first. I should get banned 2 to 3 weeks after that surgery. Congrats on everything and good luck.

I go a few days later on Feb 3rd. Start my Liq diet on the 20th.:o

It's really not that bad. Im not a milk drinker and If I can do it anyone can. I think it may be easyer than having limited choices of food. This way there is no bad choices.

I'm getting banded on the 27th. I'm on day 4 of the pre-op diet. I get 2 Bariatric Advantage shakes and one cup non-creamed Soup. Hasn't been that bad. I'm very motivated.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
