Hi everyone I am new to this, I am in the process of the 6 mo supervised diet my insurance requires. Can't wait until October that is when I can have my surgery. Right now I would like any information on two week clear liquid diet.

Welcome! Good luck on your journey to surgery! My process didn't require a two week liquid diet. Only one day of clear liquids, water, broth, sugar free Popsicles and the like. But I was required to lose 10% of my weight before surgery.

When did you you start the process? I'm also required to do 6 months through insurance requirements. I see my surgeon for the first time next week

I started in April

@@dannaf awesome !

How much longer do you have till surgery?

@@dannaf well next week is my first time at the surgeons office this entire month I had to change my insurance so that the surgeon could take me as a new patient. So im curious what to expect on the first visit

Are you having the surgery as an elective or do you have medical conditions that warrant you having the surgery

I had 6 months of weight and nutrition visits. So glad I did

I lost 22 pounds and learned alot about food habits and nutrition. 5 day liquid diet before and 2 weeks after surgury . My sergury was the 22nd and still have not had"food". Dr Apt Aug 4th hope to go right to mushy food.. all in all it seemed like a long process with lots of hoops but glad they did it that way. Good luck to all

@@dannaf I have a few things going on my sugar came out high I'm 5'7 at 265 lbs I haven't seen any specialist and so far no medical condition who knows what will come out after they run all these tests
