Pre-Op Liquid Diet --- ARGH!!!!
Can you have anything else? Mine allowed 1/2 cup cream of wheat sugar free pudding low fat yogurt, and v8, those helped me feel full.

Expectations?
Well I know with bypass you gotta watch your sugar intake, I was told if sugar was in the first three ingredients to stay away. Not so with sleeve.

I am choosing bypass because if the greater weight loss, and yes people do convert from a sleeve to a bypass later on if it doesn't work, so I wanted the final final procedure, no conversions for me! Also if you have heartburn then sleeve can make it way worse! Someone said this and it makes sense: the sleeve is for someone who can control what they eat but just needs help with portions, bypass will also give you that healthy fear of dumping syndrome if you eat bad food. Not everyone dumps but at least you'll have that fear in your head.
