If you can't find it, just let me know and I'll go over it again. After all the times I've told it, I've got the story down to a science.

Ohio State University-Wexner Medical Center, Central Ohio, I live 14 miles from Ohio's Geographic Center, not only is it a Center of Excellence, it pioneered laparoscopic gastric bypass in that area. Seminar had probably had maybe 65 present. Mostly the Columbus area, but one person from West Virginia and one from Central Indiana. How do I know this? In an earlier portion of life I was a long distance phone operator so I can read area codes. Made myself known to the couple from West Virginia as I have friend and kinfolk there. Their names were Gary and Elinor , he normally goes to a doctor in Marietta Ohio, his local hospital refused to do him as he's over 65 (69) so he' d come North. Nice people,hope he and I have surgery about the same time.

Frust8, been checking out their website. I can understand why someone would come from W. Virginia. The place is top notch, I would be totally comfortable with them.

Am really interested in the difference in the post op regime for RNY, as that is what I am having. There was no actual info on that.

Please do keep us posted on how you are doing. I think you are in great hands.

Well I went to seminar at different hospital, one I'm considering switching,my records to. Something curious, they start their Bandera and sleevers on liquid-puree-mooshy- regular, the RnYs liquid and then teeny,tiny,pieces of regular. Isn't that strange? They do 400 bypasses each year so you would think they know what they're doing!

Interesting. What hospital is this, where are you located? Is it a Bariatric Center of Excellence?

I am now on day 5 of my semi liquid pre op diet and all is going well. The headache feeling passed by the third day. The only trouble I have is when I am out and about and stop near a restaurant or fast food place. I swear, there should be a law about those odors wafting across parking lots and assaulting our noses. That gets my saliva going. food odors need to be contained to the premises! 😂😂

Got my surgery date! March 19! 😁

Starting my semi liquid diet Monday 5th for 2 week’s and then Clear Liquids only the day before surgery on the 18th.

I am so ready for this! 💃🏻
