I may not be in the right section. My surgery date has been pushed back THREE times already. Only because of the doctor going away and "emergencies"......Anyway I am a bit overwhelmed and a little confused on what Im allowed to eat/drink for the liquid weeks and the first few days after surgery. I met with the nurse and she confused the crap out of me and then gave me a huge attitude. Ugh.....Any suggestions would be wonderful!

New date---FEB 4,2013

I'm not trying to be funny, but maybe a new Dr.

If they are not there to make sure you understand everything, you don't want them.

My bariatric center is there to see that I succeed.

Sounds like you need a more supportive practice. Mine did seminars and passed out diet information way before surgery. Look into alternatives. All doctors give different post-op instructions based upon their experience, which is why none of us really want to advise you specifically.

I agree...a supportive, knowledgeable, understanding surgeon, nutritionist and nursing staff will make a huge difference in your journey. They need to be able to answer all your questions and give you all the info and advice you need to succeed....I wish you the very best!
