I think it really varies from surgeon to surgeon. I must only do a liquid diet 48 hours before surgery and 2 weeks post op.
Congratulations on your surgery date, as well!

best wishes to you! ill be thinking of you as i pace the floor of my home as i have surgery the day after you! I am excited for you! i did alot of reasearch on the surgery types and if there was a surgeon on LI that did the switch i would have opted for that. It seems to have the best weightloss long term. I will have RNY on the 8th. Fingers crossed for me please i am so nervous.

Thank you so much!
It's a little muggy today, we're getting over the bad bushfire weather here now.
And I can say the same for american accents haha! they sucker me in :)
I have to watch my mouth when I talk about thongs to my american friends, I usually have to correct myself by saying flip flops or they'll look at me weird haha.
And good luck to you too :) I hope all the best for your wls!
And i'll pass the luck to my mum :)
All the best <3

Good luck to you and your MUM :) That sounds so cute. I only had the option of band bypass or Switch. I will be going with bypass because i havent found any doctors on long island who do the switch.
Ive always wanted to go to australia! how is it on the other side of the earth? im assuming you are in summer since im freezing through winter hear! I dated a guy from australia once although i have to admit alot had to do with the accent! I have a funny story about how he wanted to where his thongs to the beach. Thongs are a much different thing here than they are there! made for some good laughter.
Again good luck to you! Im april 8th! Cant wait!

So yesterday I got the date set!
April 1st! I'm sooo excited! I'm going to be doing this a few hours before my mum gets hers so we'll be doing this together :)
I'm getting the Gastric Sleeve due to my age (19) and my mother is getting the Gastric Bypass.
I have an appointment on the 10th of march to see my nutritionist who will tell me all about the foods to eat and avoid and all that jazz.
I can't wait!
