Making the decision to have the surgery, was not an easy one my brother in law had it so it help me a lot.
You can not do this half hearted the pre op diet is not easy but follow it. The people that were in my group the ones who did the best followed the pre op diet the best. You have to make the commitment to yourself. It is a life style change. If your thinking about doing this and expect to be waited on think again. The staff is fanastic and will help you but baby you nope. This is a good thing it makes you get up walk get to know people and the best part of that is the other patients are there for the same reason as you.
If you are serious about a life change then make your appointment!! I am 2 and a half weeks after surgery the healing process has been a fairly easy process. I have lost 45 pounds since I started my pre op diet like oct 27th I believe.
I am thankful that I have done it and wish you the best.
