JamJarGem 11 Posted June 14, 2018 What are you guys doing for your pre-op diet? I started mine this week...a bit early but I was treating every day like it was the last supper so I thought "enough". Also, I'm having revisionary surgery as I already have a gastric band, so I want to make sure my insides are as prepared as can be I'm on milk and greek yoghurt. Day 4 and I'm finding it OK. 1 1 Frustr8 and sleevedlove reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JamJarGem 11 Posted June 14, 2018 Hi peggilyn, did you consider having band removal and sleeve done at the same time? How long had you had the band? Mine has been in 12 years. I’m worried that there’ll be too much scar tissue so might be a risk the sleeve can’t be done at the same time, or that I’ll have a “big” sleeve at the top to divert from the scar tissue. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frustr8 7,886 Posted June 14, 2018 Happy Birthday and Happy Rebirthday all in one, this will make the rest of July anticlimactic. Best of everything now and in the future. 1 Frustr8 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My band was removed in September 2015 because it was cutting circulation off to the top 1/3 of my stomach. I have a good bit of scar tissue but can have the sleeve done. I'm nervous about my surgery, but am beyond ready to have it done!Sent from my QTASUN1 using BariatricPal mobile app 3 JamJarGem, Frustr8 and Ash-stonishing reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
