And I am already on mine, Day9, even though my surgery isn't until September 5th, I am doing 4+ weeks, according to studies my,liver will be 12% smaller and leaner from when this diet started. That should rid of. me from the NASH, most obese,have some degree of it from just bring fat. It hasn't been easy but I plan to feel much better after this is over

My surgery is Thursday the 16th. Started preop diet on the 2nd. It's been pretty hard to do, starving, stomach growling, no energy. Just looking for the next step to where I won't be hungry.

@AJP I'm feeling the same way. Nausea has become a big problem for me too. I keep reminding myself this will all be worth it in the long run.

      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.
