Doubtful phase - Need some advice



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, this is my 7th day preop diet. I've been good,following everything. However i keep asking my self if i really have to do it? The last time i weighted myself was on my 1st day i was 304.5lbs. I know i need this but i keep asking myself if I'm able to do 7 day on liquid and veggies, which I'm really impressed, maybe i can follow that. But i also know myself I'm doing this because I'm scared of having implications. Anyone of you was like me?

I thought the same thing but realized that without this tool,eating like that forever would be very difficult

I briefly thought the same thing. Man, did those pounds pour off during the first week of the liquid diet. But, all I had to do was remind myself what always happened on a diet. The pounds pour off, then at some point I'd get to hungry, or lose interest, and go off diet. No sooner would I do that then all that weight would pile right back on.

Have you done diets before? How did they turn out? And if you haven't ever actually tried a diet, then I'm surprised you've gotten to this point in the surgery process. Usually doctors like to know that you've tried diets before.

      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?
