Can The Gastric Bypass Surgery Be Postponed?
i have type 2 diabetes. I have stage 4 kidney disease. I am 51. I weigh 253. I am currently on a 1200 calorie pre surgery diet. I have lost 16 pounds in 4 weeks. Never in my life has a diet worked so well. I feel great am satisfied and my question is, can i just stay on this diet as long as it is working and postpone this gastric bypass ?
