May 24th here, RNY.... nervous, excited hoping I'm doing the right thing.....I'm 5' 5" -225..... I'm not really worried about the surgery itself, I'm more worried about complications later. Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App

I love vanilla the best...change it up a bit occasionally with adding a little PB2....do you think that is ok? I'm pre-op 48 days and trying to learn all I can before surgery. Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App
