I have my meeting with the surgeon on Monday (11/1). His way of doing things after surgery doesn't seem to go along with a lot of what I'm reading here. After surgery I will not have a fill, but I will be on 3 weeks of liquid then 3 weeks of puree. At 6 weeks he will do my first fill.

Now of course I have this 'question' on my list of things to ask him on Monday but just curious about your thoughts.:thumbup:

My surgery is this coming Thursday, 11/4. My surgeon seems to be from the same school of thought as yours; however, three family members have had the gastric bypass (in another state); one of who was done by a pioneer in the surgery. I know that all surgeons differ - but......they all had to follow a low carb, high Protein diet for as long as one week and as short as one day (one done by the pioneer). Also, they all had different lengths of time post-op for liquids and purees. All were also done through laporiscopy.
