Yay! That's my birthday! They offered me a June 29 surgery date, but I had a last hurrah vacation planned.

Me too! If Honestly if I could do it without ruining a friendship, I'd skip the birthday cruise and take the 6/29 date in a heartbeat. Have you been told anything about the pre-op diet?

Just low carb diet 2 weeks prior to surgery. I have my preop appointment on June 28th.

ttdish: Any chance you guys with a more proactive post surgery plan would be willing to privately share info? I'm curious how it differs. Thanks!!

Sure! I recommend always following your own surgeon's instructions, but it certainly can't hurt to get more information from other sources and ask questions. I'll have to dig up my information sheets from my surgery, but I did do a YouTube video on my post op diet when I was 3 days post op that I'll post a link to. If you want more detailed information than that, let me know and I'll find my post op paperwork.

Congrats on your upcoming surgery! I'm in Atlanta and know a few people who speak highly of Dr. Malick. I had my surgery in Mexico.

July 27th in Sayre, PA with Dr. Aman.

that's great! I know two people who were sleeved by Dr. Macik, nobody has had anything bad to say yet. I recently reconnected with a friend who actually was sleeved in Mexico a month ago so it's really nice to have someone local whose surgery is so close to mine.
