Yes. That happens to me a lot too. It was more intense when I was about 2 months out, but it still happens now also

It seems to me the only people that understand are other sleevers, I have a good supporting family but none of them have gone through this and truely understand! Great news that im not truly " alone" but I really dont like the feeling!

Did anyone have Lavin if so what was your pre op diet?

[shane martin1969 188]

He has several preop diets, I think depends on your insurance. He had me on low fat diet two weeks prior told me to stay on it and do not cheat. You need to shrink the fatty liver. It makes surgery easier and faster recovery. I love dr lavin. Where are u doing yours? Date yet?

Hi MK,

He didn't give me any special diet. Just followed what I had been doing which was just sensible low carb. On my final appointment with him (signing consents, etc) I asked, Ok so what is my pre-op diet? He said no pre-op diet. I said, what? You're kidding? He said, Nope.

The only restriction was only Clear liquids the day before surgery..
