Post Op Diet

[andromeda9mm]

Hey Peeps!

Is anyone out there?

Anyway, looking for some details on the post op diet schedule.

I am scheduled for surgery this monday, July 2nd. I am 5'7" and weigh anywhere from 210-200 depending.... ha ha ha. I'd love to loose 50 lbs, but would be very pleased with 40. I have been overweight since having children.

Thanks in advance!

I think the post-op diet is available from Dr. Miranda @ the OCC, call her and she should be able to help you.

Just a word of encouragement, please what ever you do, follow the diet guidelines as far as the time in each stage. I have seen numerous acquaintances get the band from American (local) drs and not be given a post diet and be on solid foods almost immediately and then go for fills within 3 weeks of surgery. According to the post op diet from the OCC, you are still in transition to solid food at that time.

Thanks friends! I am very commited to following the plan as outlined. I am very excited, and very scared.

THanks again!
