Kenny W

Yeah he's been telling me what to expect , sent me pics of his hospital dinners. Lol he's not just a friend he's my lawyer too lol.

Hello Morena22 I'm the 28th also. So is Kenny. So there are three of us and someone on the 27th. Who else is up?

My surgery is scheduled for January 28th. I had my pre-op appointment last thursday and all tests done, including EKG and have been clear. Now just waiting for the 28th. I'm excited...but, scared at the same time.

Oh yes very nervous, hopefully I don't chicken out lol, I had my gall bladder surgery scheduled 2 times over the past few years & canceled I just been dealing with the pain, but I'm ready for a change ready to drop this weight & get to do so much more with my kiddos.

I had hernia repair too, it's not a big deal. The surgery isn't bad, don't get too worked up. Men handle it well. My husband was walking around the hospital that night

Good to hear about the post op I'm really nervous I'm scheduled for surgery 1/28 I've been worried about the extra procedures I'm having done ( gallbladder & hernia repair ). I got 2 lil ones at home ages 4 & 6 so I gotta heal up fast.

sugar free popsicles; outshine by Edy's are awesome! Dannon has a light and fit Greek yogurt that is awesome and full of Protein. I also had cream Soups but wasn't a fan. Sugar Free Jello and pudding went down good but have really no nutritional value. The first week it is about staying hydrated according to my surgeon. I added the protein in at about a week out. Good luck!

Ok I'm having my bypass on 1/28 don't meet with dietician till 1/23 but I'm needing to go grocery shopping this week & was Wanting to get some things I'll need. I'm sure everyone's different but is there anything I can buy now to get a head start. Anything everyone needs to eat or drink in the days follow in surgery? Thanks for your help.

I just got my surgery date and mine will be 1/28 as well!

Thinking I need to buy a blender I'm hearing a lot of purée stuff too. Lol this should be interesting

I am right behind you. My surgery date is feb 3 and I also had a lapband for a while. I look forward to keeping up with your progress.

Hello All,
I am new here. I'm having surgery on Jan. 28th. I'm scared to death and very excited. I look forward to and hope I've found an online community that is active to share my hopes, fears, and accomplishments with as well as learn from those who have been there. I had a lap band in 2007 but have lost only approx 50 lbs. so I've decided to go for the gastric bypass which is what I wanted to do to begin with but was too afraid to go through with it.
I look forward to meeting everyone

I'm 39 , I'm definetly ready for it, I've got arthritis also & back issues can't wait to feel better.

My surgery date is January 16 and I can't wait. It's been a big battle for many years with my weight just raising all the time. I look forward to when I can walk up the stairs in my home and not be out of breath. I also know that my knees will enjoy the relief.
