Any thoughts so stressed, i'm already with work to be out, i.cant postpone

There is no way we can answer that. You will definitely have to ask your doctor and let him decide.

Just remember, if he does postpone the surgery, it's a good thing. It's not worth risking serious complications or your health for an elective surgery.

Best wishes.

You need your doctor's advice. Best wishes

Your stomach bugs must be because to the some bad items or agent in you shake. So it is always advised to maintain a very healthy and nutritional diet plan after the surgery that will help you gain a quick weight loss without any side effects. I was in the same situation few months before then Lap Band Surgery Book helped me a lot more information about the prevention, precautions, diet plans etc of the surgery.
