    Hey everyone. I am hoping to get my surgery date in the next month. I just realized how scary and difficult this is going to be for me. I have been going through the approval process for about a year now and until now, I was so excited and anxious to get it and be ready for a new life. I just had my last nutrition appointment and realized that I may have some serious trouble after the surgery. I am a very very picky eater. I don't like fish, vegetables, and a lot of other things they suggest they eat I don't know what I'm going to do, and was hoping someone on here could give me some suggestions.

    Any April bandsters out their???

    I am just waiting for my final approval from my insurance company. My doctor believes we will have surgery scheduled by the end of this month or beginning of next. I would love to be able to share experiences with you guys! Good luck everyone!

    Thank you so much for the stories and advice. It's always nice to hear from other people who have gone through it.

    I have heard that my taste will most likely change anyway. I'm a big meat and carb kind of girl right now. I like most meats, but chicken and beef are my favorites. Fruits, I do like fruits, a lot....and bread of any kind. I usually get my daily vegetable servings from V-8 fusions and while I know that's not the best, it's what I can do right now. I am just afraid that I will fall off the wagon and not do as well as I am hoping I will. I am excited, but scared as well.

    I have also hear that your taste changes a bit after surgery. My mother had gastric bypass a few years ago and her taste changed completely. For me, it's not about the taste of the vegetables so much as the texture. I have some serious issues with textures of things. I hope that I can tolerate chicken post surgery/recovery. Chicken is a big staple of my diet right now. Good idea with the raw veggies, too. I am trying to re-introduce myself to veggies one at a time, so this may help. thank you!
