I too wanted the sleeve all along until I was told about my severe acid and how it has damaged my esophagus already and I have a hiatal hernia that also needs repaired. The sleeve will make the acid much worse and for a lot of people who don't have prior issues find out later they get terrible heartburn. Once he told me the acids can cause esophageal cancer, it was a done decision. I wish you luck with your choice and surgery!

My surgery is April 26th and I will be starting my liquid diet tomorrow!!!

I am in Pittsburgh Pa and I am having RNY on April 26th!

Hey all you April peeps how would you like to become Facebook friends where we could message each other and get to know each other better. I don't discuss this directly on fb tho. But messenger is a nice fast way to chat. Anyone interested?

Love following each of you. So nice to hear everyone's stories. So glad for each of you that have had great surgery stories and very anxious to hear from all of us still waiting. I too will be next week. Tuesday is my day! A week from tomorrow!!! I start my liquid diet tomorrow! Not looking forward to that at all. Congrats and Good Luck!

Is any of you with April surgery dates on Facebook? We can all keep in touch with each other this way even easier! Get to know each other a little more.

Any one???

Awe Happy Anniversary to you! I'm guessing that's why your name has 426 in it????

So glad your surgery went well. Guess we will both have something big to remember that date by!

Hello, I'm new to the site as well. I'm 7 weeks out and had my surgery in Pittsburgh. I have already had a stall for about two weeks but started losing again this week. Frustrating, but I feel so good. I lost 60 before surgery and 25 post op. At 85 lb loss I'm half way to my goal. Best of luck!

Congratulations! That's fantastic! Where did you have your surgery? Mine is scheduled for April 26!

Yes first time for me! RNY. I wanted sleeve but too much acid damage. I'll be getting a hiatal hernia fixed along with my esophagus fixed a liver biopsy and an endoscope done. I'm hoping all goes perfect. I'm extremely nervous!

Oh I you the best. It goes so fast. If you need anything answers or anything at all don't hesitate to msg me!????

Good luck to you both!!! I'm right between you both!????

Good luck to you all!!! Exciting month for us all!

Day before mine! Good luck to you

Wow congratulations! That's super exciting news! That's huge! I'm so happy for you. Your family is going to love watching your transformation! So nice they're are on board with you. My family also. I have a husband 2 kids and my mom all know. They are all supporting me. My daughter says I should just go to the guy since I don't have a whole lot to lose but she doesn't understand how hard it is to stay away and not eat a whole sleeve or girlscout cookies! I'm 193 right now so I'm lucky I'm not as heavy as some people but I'm only 5' and my bones are brittle from all the lower weight I carry from my hips down. A lot of strain. Right now my foot is fractured cause of my weight. I wanted the sleeve. It can't have it so RNY it is

Oh that's neat. Are you excited???

Ahhhh ok. Good luck to you!!! Where are you located? I'm in Pittsburgh Pa
