Hi there, I'm having the sleeve also on March 6th, just a few days before you! I'm trying to get preparations underway at the moment, getting anything I need for the pre op diet sorted out, but I'm not starting that until 18th February.

I'm scheduled for Sleeve on March 12th, going to start prepping everything February 23rd - buying my stuff for the pre-op and liquid diet on that date and then staying on pre-op for 2 weeks before my surgery on March 12th.

Hi I’m also waiting for date but they said first two weeks of March. I’ve actually started working out and smoothie, not carbs diet already. I want to get used to eating healthier ! I feel good already

When I spoke to my dietician about potentially doing the pre op diet for more that the 2 weeks so I could make the best preparation possible, she closed me down fairly quickly and said not to do that as most people could only reliably stay on it for the 2 weeks. If I have tried to do it for longer, I might have put myself at risk of "falling off the wagon" in the week prior to surgery.

I'm in a space now where I'm just hanging around, not being too aggressive on the diet, just trying to stay away from junk food.< br>

      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?
