  1. Ok I go in May to talk about getting the gastric bypass or the gastric sleeve. Anyone know what we have to do the first 6 months before they do the surgery

      I had sleeve. My insteuctions were from two months out clear fluids ONLY (no milk in coffee), sugar out, low calorie meals only like Optifadt shake. Very lean meat no bigger than palm of hand. All fruit and fruit juice out. Veggies - no potato, pumpkin, corn or sweet potato. Green leafy, tomato, carrot. LOTS of water allowed. Purpose is to use fat from your liver so that it shrinks and doesn't completely cover the stomach. They should have a Dietician give you very specific advice.

  2. 2 weeks post op, Strictly on 700-800 calories per day but not a single pound lost in 1 week. Is this normal?

      I have read on a lot of medical sites that post-operative swelling is the cause, so don't despair yet.
