  1. Wow thats great. You must be so excited.Hope it goes well. Please let me know how it goes. I am getting married in December and I want to lose this excess weight by then. And only my parents know about this decision of mine. I don't want anyone to know as its considered a taboo in my country so i'm looking for online support. What all are you allowed to drink in the liquid diet? Is it very hard?
  2. I am hoping for a june surgery. I am meeting with the nutritionist today. My surgeon will be back fist june. I hope he gives me a date in the first week of june only. Although, i'm scared about the pre op diet. How difficult is it???
  3. Hi, I am 26 years of age and my BMI is 32. I want to get this surgery done for SURE as I have dieted a lot and have gained all of it again a number of times and i feel like a YOYO. I have done a lot of research on this surgery and because I have PCOS my gyne also said i should opt for this surgery for permanent weight loss. I already met with the surgeon and he said i should go for it but have to meet his dietician first. So I am going to meet the dietician in a couple of hours. I want to know how long is the liquid diet for? I want to get the surgery in June and not any later as I have to travel in August to America for a wedding and I live in Pakistan. How difficult is the liquid diet? Will I have to wait for a long time for the surgery cuz I read some places that they make you go on a diet for a long time before the surgery. :\ Also what tests do they do before the surgery? I am also worried that if the tests are not ok what if they deny me of surgery?? Any help will be appreciated. Hope it all works out.
