Thank you for the info. Each day will get better I'm sure. I've heard week one is the hardest. I'm looking forward to the more energy and confidence ect that's for sure!

You are going to be ok I am 3 weeks post

I'm 19 days post op we can chat anytime send me a message I'll be sure to chat and answer questions

I am 53 and i am going for surgery march 30.

Wow what a journey. 3/13/17 I will be 1 month post op with my bypass. Been on purée diet since day 3. I haven't been able to handle anything but yogurt, Popsicle, pudding, coffee and tea up until 3 days ago and now I am able to do cream of wheat and Soups.. 2 more weeks of purée and then off to soft foods.. I have absolutely no regrets. I have lost 40 pounds since pre op diet..

Thank you love!
My starting weight was 289.7LBS
After the 10 day liquid diet I lost 30LBS dropping to 258.7LBS Pre-surgery.
Today I weigh 144.4LBS.
I used to be a 3XX now I fit into a Small
I wear tactical clothing due to work, so I used to fit in a 48 in MEN, very snug btw. Now I'm using a 30 and it's fitting me very loose.
I feel unstoppable! I practice Brazilian JiuJitsu for workouts twice a week [emoji846]

Sounds good thanks!

Forth day on liquid diet feeling ok.

Hello neighbor!(I'm south sound) I will be having rny in April. I personally chose rny because my family is plagued with diabetes. But also im comfortable that my surgeon is very experienced. He said the decision was mine,but he recommended rny for my personal health conditions.

Yay! Congrats. I'm on the countdown as well! We will soon be on our losing journey!
[][]SURGERY DAY: 3/1/17[][]

My surgery is in a couple of weeks and while I'm mostly ready, it's starting to hit me. I still go back and forth to this day. I just keep thinking about the benefits: I'm delaying (hopefully completely preventing) diabetes that my mom and grandmother have. I'll be 36 in a few months but my body is starting to ache and feel much older. I want to eventually travel so I need my body to feel better. I want to enjoy life! Keep reminding yourself of all of the positives every time you feel scared. It helps to calm me down! [emoji4] Like achappex3 said, I haven't had a big yes moment either. It's been a little series of yes moments, especially as I get closer to the date.

If all goes well I'll be having surgery August/Sept. I'm mom to two kids 7.5 months and 5. Every day I'm back and forth as I make my way through this process. My original hope was to have the sleeve but due to severe GERD I am not a candidate. I'm terrified of RNY from 15 years ago hearing horror stories. But reading more and more I realize that doctors have really perfected this surgery, and the risk of me having a serious complication from obesity is higher than the surgery in general. I have lost and gained 150 lbs in my life. I need something to stop the yoyo, I need something to keep me healthy, I need this tool to make me stay accountable. I need this to stop the horrific GERD that keeps me up at night, despite meds. Repeat repeat repeat everyday
