Will be one year post rny on 2/24 next week. Not sure how much help I can be since my starting surgery weight was 260 but I am here if you need added support.

@sweetmisery86

Lucky i did lose some weight and my doctor went on with the surgery. I was so excited and now i am 5 days post op

Hope your surgery went well... Make sure you keep us updated

I had my surgery on 2/24 and my mother had hers 6 years ago so i can give you a little advise on my experience with the RNY

I am in Los Angeles and make frequent trips to SD

How did you manage your first week? I am trying to sip either the isopure or water every 30 mins and its extremely hard and the gas pains dont make me feel any better.

I had my surgery on 2/24/14. So i am on day 2 and i am still in pain and having a hard time to get my sips in. I know in a few weeks this will be all worth it. I consistently remind myself that this is one of the hardest and best decisions i can make for my life and health.

Thanks you are absolutely right. I am a bit worry because my surgery is tomorrow and the nurses always told us about surgeons canceling the day of surgery maybe to scare us into losing more weight.

Thank you sooooooooo much for your help and i will let you know how things go

Yikes!!!! Surgery day is monday and i have to lose 5lbs. Hopefully i make my goal and hopefully my doc dont put me back on the bench

Have anyone gained weight the day of surgery and the surgeron turned them down? I know in class they will tell us the surgeon will make us put our clothes back on if we gain weight on the day day of surgery.

Yes i finished my classes in Dec and my surgery date is 2/24/14 at west LA

Im in san fernando valley

Im 24 and basically still farther away from the surgery. I am in my 8 class session for kaiser options class. So if anyone can explain if they were able to get the surgery although they did not lose the mandatory 10 percent weight loss?
