Hi Brendani not all surgeons require a pre op diet mine in Perth didn't all i had was one day on clear fluids before surgery so if this is whats holding you back may be check out other Baratic surgeons in you area

hi My surgeon is Gordon Padovan in Perth ,hope it all goes well for you not long now

Good evening All had my appoinment today in Perth with the surgeon and dietesion and i have a surgery date of 23rd of july , and i don't have to do the Opti diet before hand :)

8 weeks and 21kg thats awesome on both levels 8 weeks on opti must have been hard to achieve . i have my appointment with the surgeon and dietetsion tomorrow in Perth and i should get my surgery date then as well hopefully it wont be to far away

Good evening all I have read hundreds of your posts and love them all and they confirm I have made the right decision to have the sleeve surgery but I am wondering if any one had/has type 2 diabetes and what effect being sleeved has made to the control of there diabetes Cheers Phil

good luck hope it all goes well for you Kadybug looking forward to finding out how things are going over the next few weeks

Hi Krystal i dont have my surgery date as yet but i expect it to be around the same time as you in Perth ,who is your surgeon In Perth as there only seems to be a couple who do this procedure

hope it goes quickly for you Kadybug , i dont have my first meeting with the surgeon and dietesion until the 12/6 but i am already not looking forward to the opti hope fully it will be only for 2 weeks
