Pre-op diet: 11/28/2016, Surgery Date: 12/12/2016.



Recommended Posts

I am looking for others who have a surgery date scheduled on 12/12/2016. I am starting to get nervous, but this has been in the works for over 9 months! Full-sleeve ahead. I am thirty years old, live in the Pacific NW of the US, and have been over 200lbs since I was twelve. I am looking forward to this second chance.

I just had mine 11/14. I was nervous too. You'll do great. Your surgery is scheduled on my birthday so sending good vibes your way. I was down maybe 4-5 days. Im 7 days post op and feel great no pain meds etc.

Start my liquid diet on 11/28 also. Surgery is on 12/9. Thanksgiving this year is going to be last real food for a couple of months. More nervous about the unknown factor of how I will do through the early stages. Type 1 diabetic so have hope that this surgery will help in getting this under control.

@@Gypsymama, let's stay in touch. We will have the same WLS anniversary and I think that is pretty cool.

@@Mothra62 keep pushing thru. It has definitely been tough especially when everyone else is eating, but we are all strong enough to push thru to the end.

I'm the 12th as well! I have a 2 week liquid diet and I'm struggling more with my emotions than not eating. This journey is life changing in so many ways than just physical, but I am already so happy I'm able to do it!

Teeman, day 3 on liquid not too bad. I also put the smokes down the same day I started pre-op diet. I would ha e to say that I am wanting a smoke more than food.

December 19th 2016... I shall be Sleeved! Let the journey begin!!

      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.
