My surgery is scheduled for July 23rd. I don't have a pre-op diet either. I'm excited and a little nervous. My pre-op meeting with the surgeon is this Friday. ...The thing I think I'll miss the most is Diet Coke.

Good luck with your journey and your surgery. My best friend has been 2 ltrs.of diet Pepsi every day.

My biggest concern is that I can't drink before, during or right after eating. Not sure how we are going to accomplish taking so long to eat so little food at each meal knowing that it's going to be cold way before you get finished.

Surgery is scheduled for July 16th

My surgery is July 30th. It has be rescheduled twice. My first date was September 17th. The office called and asked if I would like an August date instead so they scheduled me for August 22nd. Today they called and said they had a July date available and would like to bump me up again. I had a 12 month wait time because my insurance required me to do bariatric counseling for a year before they would approve the surgery. I can't believe my date is almost here!

I'm scheduled for RNY on 7/25! Was originally scheduled for a sleeve on 7/1 but I changed dr's @ last minute and new dr felt I absolutely should be doing RNY instead of sleeve.

So now on 2nd round of pre-op dieting. Congrats to all the bypass peeps already done in July - I hope your recoveries are going well!

Woohoo! In addition to a 'July surgery sibling', we are 'same day siblings'!

Are you on your pre-op diet yet? Seems that diff dr's vary between wanting their patients to start 3 weeks before surgery date, some are 2 weeks...some are 10 days...and I've heard of a very very few that required no preop diet.

Hi! No I only have to do a 3 day clear cleanse! The doctor said maybe lose 5 pounds, but nothing specific! What about you?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
