Hi, I'm scheduled for October 8 with Dr. Ren at NYU in New York. I start liquids on this coming Friday the 21st. It's taken 9 months to get to this point. I'm ready to get on with it!

The liquid diet helps to shrink the liver & make the surgery easier for both the doctor and the patient.

My preparation took 9 months in order to get everything lined up properly so the insurance company would approve without problems (I hope). Although I had done Weight Watchers, my doctor recommended that I do 6 months with him so we could claim medical supervision.

I haven't had a moment's doubt about doing this. I wish it had been faster, but things happen at their proper time.

Bill
