  1. Did your Doc require a pre-op diet?

    I have to be on a 1000 calorie diet 2 weeks prior to surgery. I was told it was to shrink the liver. Tina

    My name is Tina and I will be banded on Feb. 11 at St. Raphael's Hospital in New Haven, CT. My surgeon is Dr. Geoffrey Nadzam and I would like to lose around 85-90 pounds. I recently had a parathyroid gland removed and it has affected my thyroid function. So I am now on thyroid meds. I will have an endoscopy and pre-op testing on Friday, Jan. 18. I will have to do a 1000 calorie diet two weeks prior to surgery to shrink my liver. Looking forward to sharing my journey with you! Tina :smile:
