It be nice to talk to you during this journey.

Thanks for responding. I am terrified of the 2 week liquid diet before surgery. I'm afraid I'll fail. I'm so anxious and can't wait to have surgery. The 6 months supervised diet seems like forever. Im only going on my third month.

I was pretty nervous about the 2 week liquid diet also...but it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be..The first 3 days were the hardest..and then it became much easier...the time will just fly by..and by the end i was only drinking 4 shakes instead of the 5...you will do great! If i can do it...anyone can!!

I am in Miami and set to go on the 12th at UM.

Good luck!

I got sleeved by Jacobs too (and I work at UM medical school).

I love him!

JMH south was impressive, good care, good team.

Side note, I don't think he is super aggressive with his sleeves, meaning he takes out 75% not 85% that other posters here talk about. But at 3 weeks I'm still swollen and can only tolerate 3oz of purée foods. But can drink easily and had very little postoperative pain (did have big hiernia repair so my surgery was long at 2hrs).

Feel free to PM me if you have questions.
