Dr. Cahill In Dyer, Indiana?

Ok, I went to my pre-op visit with the Nurse for 1hour then with Lori for 1hour. The pre-op diet is for 1 week and you can only have protien shakes mixed with Water and water.

That is good! You didn't have to meet with Dr. Birhanu?

No, I met with Dr. Cahill after Lori and the Nurse. That was an hour also.

Ok, this was your last visit. I see. Congrats and keep us posted.

So did the last meetings leave you feeling prepared? I just have this feeling no matter how much prep work, i'm still not going to feel like i appreciate the scope of whats coming.

I thought I was prepared! I found out that his sleeve patients have to be on full liquids for TWO whole months after surgery! woah.... He is taking extra caution for leaks which I can appreciate. I hope I can make it : /

That's a big concern for me. I mean, I know i'm going to have a hard time just on the preop liquid diet. i really hope my body changes enough to allow me to get through 70 days of liquid. Just the sound of it makes me worry.

What did you say!?!?!? OH NO! Nuh uh! That is very extreme. One person on YouTube had to do 4 weeks. That is long too....but 2 Months.

yep, days 1-14 (clear liquid diet) week 3-8 (Protein drinks and Vitamins) week 9 (full liquid/Blenderized and FINALLY week 10 (soft to regular foods). I suppose if Dr. Cahill extended the liquid portion it must be for a good reason. oh well...
