Oh wow. Once your done with that diet what happens

Then I make sure I have had all my pre testing done, and attended my 3 classes

on nutrition, exercise, and behavioral health. Meet with surgeon and doctor.

And there is one more class that last half a day about eating after surgery and what to expect.

Then surgery!

Well that doesn't seem so bad, you can do it

I hope so, at 62 nothing is easy any more. What kind of diet do you have?

All I have left is the EGD and 2nd Nutritionist appt. Hopefully I will get a surgery date soon. My insurance only requires 2 week pre op liquid diet. Kind of nervous as this is a revision from a gastroplasty from back in the early 90s.

***update: started my 2 week pre op Liquid Protein diet on the 11th. First couple of days are a beast, but it's getting better. Lab work tomorrow then pre op appt Tuesday. Surgery is set for the 25th of May and I learn my surgery time Tuesday. Getting nervous, but it helps reading about Y'all and your journeys. Good luck to everyone with upcoming surgeries, and I'll be praying!

It's so strange to think that when I first posted on this thread, I was just getting started with the process, and now I'm at the end. Surgery is next month!

Good luck! Will be praying for all.

I had my very first consult today and we're debating on which to do! He wants to do an endoscopy to see how bad my esophagus is from acid reflux and that will tell wether I recieve the sleeve or bypass. I have a 3 month diet plan and have to lose 12lbs.
