I started my 2 week preop liquids today! I had about 2 weeks from my last weigh in until today so I've eaten all my favorites "for the last time".... as a matter of fact I am so ready for my liquid diet and to get my surgery I cant even think of eating anything else! I can honestly say I am sick of eating! I have been an emotional eater since...well, forever. I have been working on getting things in place to do instead of eat... like walk or exercise. It's working so far. I have slowly put everything in order in my head and house so I am, for the first time in my dieting life, setting myself up for success instead of failure.

I am well on my way with this journey, looking forward to a new and much lighter lifestyle in the near future. Thanks to all who post and reply to others...I am reading, taking it in and using all that information to prepare!

So... I'm ready!!

It sounds like you are in the right spot !!! I am a emotional eater as well and I ate all my fav. foods before surgery. My doctor did not put me on any diet before surgery, just the day before I had to eat light. Now I am 4 months post op and at time I am hungry and crave certain things... once I taste them I really don't like them anymore. Since surgery my taste has changed and I don't revolve everything around food anymore. I get full real quick too !!! This surgery is the best !!!! I am sooooo glad I did it.

      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.
