I am on Tuesday as well. I don't have to do clears until tomorrow, but have been on a 2-week pre-op diet (sorta). I will be at the hospital at 8:30 so it looks like we are right around the same time. Good luck, God speed, and see ya on the other side (the losing side that is!). May your surgery be successful, May your recovery be painless, and May your weight loss be all that you hope it will be! Hugs!

Call your doctor, or go to the ER. You need to get all your Protein in. And, you need to have all your liquids to stay hydrated.

Are you on a PPI? That would stop any acid reflux. Also, hopefully you haven't been eating food yet......what have you been surviving on in the last five days?

      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.
