Appointment April 10th!

I have an appt April 10th to get more information about this journey. I'm extremely nervous but was wondering what questions would be good to ask. Want to be as prepared as possible

Good luck to you. My consult appt is in May. I’ve done a ton of research already but this is what I’m planning on asking:
Explain the procedure in detail
What are the potential complications/ risks?
What will recovery look like for me?
What will my diet consist of immediately post-op in 1 and 3 months?
And I’m sure I’ll think of more!


Which surgery do you recommend for me and why?How soon may I return to exercising? When will I be released to return to the gym?
When can I go swimming or use a hot tub?
When can I have sex again?
If I do need plastic surgery in the future, who might you
Recommend?
IWhat protein shakes have worked best in your practice?
Am I young enough that my skin will snap back into shape and I'll avoid plastic surgery?
How much weight should I attempt to lose before surgery?
Do you or your hospital sponser support groups and how often do they meet?
Can I have a family member or friend with me before and after surgery?
At my BMI what is your policy on liquid pre surgery diet?. For what period of time would be best?
