Surgery date 2/7/2017

Hey everyone, so I just got my surgery date. And I must admit I am very nervous and executed.

Initially I had wanted to get the sleeve done but my surgeon insists that bypass is better for long term results. I am looking for long term results but the bypass procedure is a bit more invasive than the sleeve and that works my nerves.

I just wanted to share that I got my date! #fistpumps. #teamfeburary

    Did your surgeon put you on a pre-op diet ?

    I start mine on Monday. It consist of 4 Protein shakes a day. 1 high protein snack and 1 very limited meal. Kinda nervous about it lol

    I'm a longtime lurker on this website and have just gotten my surgery date, too.

    2/14/2017 (Happy Valentine's Day to me, I guess)

    Excited and nervous, but glad to see some others here headed for surgery soon, too!

    Best of luck to you all - I'm so ready for this.

    Congratulations!!! Super close! How is your pre op diet going?

    My pre-op diet did not go so well. I really only got a good week in instead of two. When I buckled down, I felt sick. But I got through it!
