Hi everyone, I had my RNY on June 10th and am feeling very positive about the surgery and am trying to not look at this as a negative but rather a positive and where I will be in 8 to 12 months from now. I have had a couple of friends that are a few months ahead of me and are giving me a few pointers and thought I would share. I have yet to even feel hungry, I do try to stick to a pattern, I eat my three meals aday, which include canned ham, canned chicken,hamburger and eggs. I have tried to be creative. with my ham and chicken I add the olive oil mayo and a baby spoon of relish to make ham and chicken salad. Baby food fruit (peaches, bananas, pears, and apples) are actually not bad. I have pureed cans of greeen Beans, peas, and carrots, I measured these in 1 oz cups that I got at GFS and froze them so I go just get instantly warm and then ready, also do this with the meat. I have also ate out. At Mexican restaurant I grabbed 1oz of meat out of hubby's taco and ordered a side of refried beans. I added some of the queso to the meat and was so good. At Bob Evans I ordered scrambled eggs and green beans or another time husband ordered the pot roast and I took 1 oz of his roast. I use sugar free popcicles and sugar free Jello to help get my liquids in. I also make my popcicles from sugar free koolaid if can't afford to buy them. I try to drink a Protein shake 1 hour after each meal, which helps to get the protein in. Thanks to friends and testing, the best tasting ones you can find cheaper online. My friends recommended to me and I recomment them too are

Hi I am from Indy area also, surgery date was 06/10/2015, had surgery at St Vincents in Carmel and Dr David Diaz is my surgeon

I am five days post op and I too have incontinence. I was told I would not need the supplies at the hospital and I did not. The day of surgery I didn't urinate hardly at all, day 2 of being in the hospital and nonstop drinking, eating ice, and popcicles, I knew in advance when I needed to go and would not have any issues. at night the hospital I stayed in had me up every couple of hours for health stats and shots, I slept with no problem and also sat up and walked every 2 hours with no issues. I am hoping that the weight loss wiill fix all of my issues I had.
