Dinner The Night Before



Recommended Posts

Dr Garcia instructions say you may have dinner the night before, has any one ate the night before surgery? Will I risk anything by doing so?

I don't recall that it said you could have a big dinner. I was on Clear Liquids the day before; Breakfast was light, then clear liquids the rest of the day. Maybe you should double check with your coordinator.

Yes, my surgeon told us to go and enjoy our last big meal. We had to fast for several hours the day before surgery before for testing and nothing after 10 pm I think . Funny thing, I was so excited and yes a little nervous I didn't really eat much of it. I was glad I had brought some peanut m&m's for dessert though. And I had a last coke at dinner.< /p>

i was instructed to eat my pre op diet for 2 weeks. 2 shakes a day and 1 sensible meal. The day before surgery i was able to eat lunch (whatever I wanted) just nothing past 3pm.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
