My husband and I had to first lose 10% of our body weight before we QUALIFIED for the surgery through the facility we went through. Now I am on day 3 of a liquid diet (2 days creamy, 1 clear) and tomorrow is surgery. The NUT did give us a diet that was high in protein to lose the initial weight. Mostly chicken, pork, beef and 2 cups of veggies a meal. Shake for breakfast. And it worked fairly well and we were full. If you are interested I can give more specifics. But I dont want to interfere in your particular Dr.s goals for you. Good Luck! Kim

My problem is that I keep dreaming that it WONT work. I know in my head that it is a ridiculous thought, however it wakes me up at night. Tomorrow is the BIG DAY! One more night. Post more after the fact.

Im having mine done as well on the 13th in NY. My Dr. required that we lose 10% of our total weight before our surgery. (My husband and I) And then our surgery was scheduled. It was a combination of low carbs and shake diet. But I managed. Good luck!
