I start my pre-op diet tomorrow. I pray I don’t cheat. Anyone else starting tomorrow?

Oh my! I'm almost done with mine and have not cheated because I decided to take "cheat" out of my vocabulary. : It really hasn't been as bad as I anticipated. I have not been hungry at all, and except for a very slight headache the 2nd day, no adverse effects. I hope yours goes as well!

I'm doing good so far. I'm not hungry but my co-worker keeps talking about different foods. Ugh!

I started the pre-op diet Friday & surgery is on Wednesday. 2nd & 3rd days were the hardest. You can do this!

Almost done with day 1. I was fine all day. It’s just now starting to get a little challenging as I have to get my kids dinner.

You’re lucky you only have to do 6 days. I have to do 2 weeks.

I know I was very lucky! The day they got my approval they had a cancellation & I was lucky enough to get in.

Yeah when they called me with my approval they had just given a cancellation to someone else. I told her if anyone else cancels to let me know right away. Good luck!

I seen on CSI that they put Vicks Vaporub on there upper lip to keep from smelling dead bodies,, I am going to give that a try with good food..

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
