Feb 7th Surgery....anyone else and where?



Recommended Posts

Ok...so, it's getting real. I have completed 1 week of the pre-op diet. It's going well and have dropped 13lbs. Tonight I tried a different Soup and totally regret it. I feel like my taste buds are already changing.

So, this time next week. I will almost be landing in San Diego and the next morning, off to see Dr. Illan. Can't wait!

I'm on for Feb 6th. Pre-op diet has been minimal for me. From reading here that is weird. Only 1 Meal Replacement and liquids the day before. Super exciting! We're gonna do great!

A couple of us are sleeved now! Yay! To the beginning of a new life. It's not often we get a reset button. I had surgery Monday and was home b Tuesday afternoon.

I'm really struggling getting my fluids and Protein in today. Not gonna be too hard on myself because my tiny tummy is healing.

How's everybody doing?

Congrats!!!! How did you do your first week? Did you have any cheats or moments of weakness? Today is my day 1 of liquids and it feels like the day that is never going to end! Surgery date is 2/15!

I was lucky. I lived on Protein Shakes and pureed/chopped wonton Soup. I did well and lost 22lbs in the 14 days.

I did have a food funeral before the liquid diet. But I didn't allow myself to cheat in fear I would screw up the liver shrinkage and surgery co u lent be completed.

      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.
