  1. Good morning all: Today is Monday June 20 and my daughter found this site for me. I am scheduled for a vertical gastrectomy July 28 so of course I am apprehensive. I am with the Univ. of Chicago Center for Obesity and it is a great program. I don't know where to start, since I've never been in a chat room before. Hope I get some good responses. My pre-surgical date is July 18 and that will be my final meeting with the anestheologist, the surgeon, the nutritionist, and a final physical. I will also start a limited (1200-1400 calorie) high protein low carb diet. I'm at work now so my time is limited. I will check my email at home tonight to see if I got any responses.
