I had RNY 12/16/2014. It has been a great year! I have felt great from the first week of surgery, no complications, no real problems with any foods or anything. I am so thankful that I went through with it and didn't chicken out as I thought about doing many times in the preliminary stages I am 5' 2" and my original starting goal for myself was 140lbs, however I am now at 121lbs! I cannot believe how fast this year has flown by!!

I am doing great as well! I had surgery Dec. 16th and have lost 80 pounds and now weigh 136. I have felt good since the day after surgery, no issues with food or drinks going down or tasting funny and other than losing weight I don't feel like I had surgery at all! I am so thankful because after reading a lot of posts about complications before my surgery I was a little worried

I was told to take centrum multivitamin/multimineral chewables and calcium citrate, two each per day, plus a sublingual b12...that's all I take, six months out I had my blood work done and all vitamin levels were good, except b12 was too high so I only take that 3 times a week now????

I didn't have a drain, I did have a catheter they put in after I was put out and didn't feel anything when they removed it.

I had bypass and didn't have a drain or feeding tube.

I'm 5'2 and weighed 211 on day of surgery 2 weeks ago. I'm am currently down to 189lbs and feel awesome!????

I can tell you that personally I haven't had a single bad post op experience! I'm two weeks out and feel great! Never had any nauseous or pain or regrets, I have not even had the up and down emotions that a lot of people seem to have... Nothing but positives for me????

My NP said any chewables as long as the had all your minerals as well, so I'm taking Centrum multivitamin/multi mineral chewables.

I had RNY on 12/16 and have 5, 4 tiny ones and one that's a little larger than the rest.

Merry Christmas Everyone! Had surgery on 12/16 and am feeling great! I am down 15 lb's since surgery day and have not regretted my decision for one second. My energy is improved as well, I find myself wide awake at 4:30 am and ready to start my day! Hope you all are doing well!????

I'm five days post op and know exactly what you mean! Only so many clear liquid varieties. I'm really looking forward to the full liquid stage, though I'm sure I'll get tired of that fast as well.

Very nice! I was/am a little sore but no real pain, I didn't have a drain.

Good luck!! Mine was yesterday morning!????

Good luck! Mine is at 11:30am. Nerves are kicking in!!

Finished my pre-op today, surgery tomorrow at 9:30am! I'm so excited!! But also a little nervous????
