Dody... the gas has NOTHING to do with the food or the size of your liver, it has to do with the fact that they pump your stomach with air for the surgery... and the anesthesia... that's where the gas comes from.

I weighed 249.4 at surgery time. He didn't require a preop diet mainly because Dr. Sanchez said I was the 6661 band he has done. Been doing them for almost 12 years. I was less scared there than any of the 3 surgeries here and they did do preop testing.

I had NO shoulder pain whatsoever and day 4 did 4 loads of laundry, dishes, made beds, swept, vacumned, and walked and then went shopping for a bed.

I feel great and have absolutely no regrets.

Before surgery you should shop around just like anything else and I went to 2 major University Hospitals in Tennessee and one in Paducah and the 3 combined hadn't done 200. That was all I needed to know.
