My BMI was 38 on day of surgery. Had to do 10 day pre-op diet. Not going to tell you it isn't hard but you will get thru it. Just keep reminding yourself why you are doing it! Good luck

Just started today. Going to Dr Garcia next week. I did it in May for 5 days before finding out I was denied by insurance and it wasnt that bad. My local doctors diet was much more strict than garcias in that it was clear liquid only and one small salad with no dressing a day. Garcia allows protien shake and some veggies/lean meat

I'm going to Dr. Garcia also next week! My surgery will be on the 20th. They told me the same diet but because I have a fatty liver I am going to do only Protein shakes for a week and Clear liquids the day before.

What brand of shakes are people using that taste decent for their pre-op? I am using Premier Protein since it has 30gm of Protein and is low in calories and sugar. Looking to see if there are better options out there. I get sleeved in November and start my liquid pre-op diet for 10 days on 10/31

      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.
