    You can do this! I had surgery on 12/10/16, it's definitely life changing, but for the better. I know what it's like to bottle emotions and feel alone and uncomfortable. Hopefully this will give you a new lease on life, you're stronger than you think! Good luck!

    I had my rny on Saturday December 10th. I came home yesterday. Thankfully my surgery went very well, so grateful for that. However--for anyone who says this is the "easy way out" can for lack of a better saying "kiss my butt"! Haha. It's pretty painful, and the amount of gas that you have to get out from being filled with it is extreme. Everyday the pain does ease up though. I'm trying to get all my liquids in because I'm not hungry at all. Lots of rest and lots of support around you will get you through. Thoughts and prayers for everyone who has their procedure coming up. Xoxo. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
