That's what I thought.. I thought the point of the pre op diet was to sharing liver for an easier surgery

A friend told me that on day of her surgery she saw someone get turned away for losing to much on the pre op diet. Anyone had problems or heard of this? My pre op diet starts Monday

I called the courthouse and got it rescheduled!!! Thank you all

Received a jury summons today in mail for day after my surgery... I have had a time getting off work to begin with...

Great gob Ryany!!!

Good luck to you PrincessSuzy.. My surgery is scheduled for 4-21 in Dallas. Seems like it keeps getting moved forward a week.

My suggestions to help me get thru would be greatly appreciated

I'm 5'3. I'm right at 200. I can lose 15 pounds easy but it comes right back. I carry it pretty well I'm big busted and I can hide the fat under my scrubs.. I'm so glad I saw this post.. I have not told anyone about my upcoming surgery except my husband and a patient of mine that had it done and she actually inspired me to want to have the surgery.. I'm 40 years old my grandfather died in his 40's with a heart attack and I lost my brother December 2012 age 43 to heart problems.. I want to do this for my health I love this site is so supportive... I wish you all the best

I work in a small dental office. I haven't told anyone. My coworkers I think will be supportive. It's the higher up that is judgmental and always comments to our patients "that's just the easy way out" I don't think it's the easy wY out I think it's a tool for a lifestyle change.

Good luck and keep us posted

Anyone use Dr Nicholson in Dallas area?

Do all doctors do EGD?

I'm having my scope procedure done April 7th My pre op appt. is April 10th. I'm excited and nervous but so ready for April 21st. When I went in for my consult on my first visit I was told about the lap band and the sleeve procedure. The sleeve seemed more efficient in what I have read.

My journey will begin 4-21-2014
