I am hoping to have the surgery early this fall. I was asking about a pre-op diet said the day before your surgery you can have a light breakfast, but then only clear liquids after that and nothing after mid-night.

Hi everyone. My name is Mike, I am 37, married and father to 2 beautiful little girls. I am I the early stages of this journey, my first information session was on May 21st. I have my nurses appointment on June 19th (also the day of my oldest daughter's kindergarten graduation! ), I am hoping that it is going to be a great day in more than one way. I have struggled my weight for most of my life, every time that I thought that I finally was on the right track I would wind up putting everything that I have lost plus some back on. I have been interested in looking into WSL but always too nervous to look into it. After getting on the scale and seeing that I am now the heaviest I have ever been, it really got me starting to think about me and my family. If I kept going down the same road, I would not be there to see my girls grow up, or grow old with my wife. I was so excited after finally going to one of the informational session on WLS, I know that I have finally found that best solution for me. If all goes well I am hoping to have my surgery this fall. This site has been excellent not only for all of them information, but also the inspirational stories. Good luck to all of the pre/post sleevers!
