Have you been doing anything exercise?

Your weight is basically the same as mine I had my RNY on December 29th I'm afraid I am having a stall right now. I'm 215 currently. I weighed 247 in my day of surgery. I feel awesome so I'm hoping even if i don't lose anymore I have helped my cholesterol level. I'm absolutely not regretting having the surgery. It was definitely worth it.

I've been sipping on sugar free green tea, I feel better now. 😊 I will definitely be more careful not to eat too fast from now on. That was harsh lol.

That sucks! I haven't been able to get much down today. I'm hoping that it goes away tomorrow. I'm afraid I'll get dehydrated.

I'm having the chest pain too, how long does it take to go away! I ate dinner too fast last night I'm assuming. I'm going to have to eat by myself for awhile, I feel bad when it seems like people are waiting on me to finish eating. I'm fine when I've eaten by myself. I'm so glad I got on here this morning and saw the posts, I thought I seriously hurt myself or something.

I've had cauliflower rice, it went fine, I'm having the same issues with hunger as you, I'm 2 1/2 weeks out. My husband took me to eat for our anniversary last night I had broiled fish but I guess I ate too much, I ate 2 oz. of the fish and felt like I had to puke and had terrible indigestion. I took my calcium tablet and my heart burn medication this morning and it came back. I'm hoping the feeling goes away soon. I feel like if I threw up it would make me better but I know my insides are still healing and I'm afraid I might tear something possibly. I was cleared for soft food, high protein anything that can be cut easily with a plastic fork so I know it wasn't from eating something too hard. I am so uncomfortable now though. I'm hoping I don't get dehydrated today. 😕

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing well! I'm amazed how good I feel, I did have a flare up of my Fibromyalgia this past Sunday I was feeling so good I forgot not to push myself. I'm feeling better now other than my arthritis. I go for my two weeks follow up this Thursday, I'm assuming my doctor will move me to the puree stage, I haven't had any issue with the shakes but I also have not experienced and hunger sensation. The smell of some food makes me want to have a bite, I was cooking bacon for my family and started crying, it was super weird but I was warned that may happen. Also good commercials advertising food bothers me a bit too. So far I've lost 20lbs since the day of my surgery.

I went to a walkin clinic today because two of my incisions looked red around the outside and found out incisions were infected so now I'm taking antibiotics, other than that the pain isn't terrible, I've been walking quite a lot which is helping get the gas that is left from surgery. Hopefully everything continues to improve and I get my infection cleared up and don't have any kind of other complications, fingers crossed! Hope everyone has a Happy New Year! 🎉🎊🎉🎊

I had my RNY Friday. I drove to the store this afternoon. I was told as long as I wasn't on the pain pills I could drive whenever I felt up to it.

The gas pain is honestly the worse right. I had my TNT this morning. Hopefully everything will go as planned!

Thank you all so much! I'm on my way to the hospital now, pre op starts at 5:30am.

I'm having RNY surgery tomorrow too, please pray for me if you pray and of you don't pray send good vibes my way. I'm so scared something will go wrong...

Tomorrow is surgery day, I started clear liquids today and had to drink laxative. So not fun! I'm so anxious! God help me! I'll be glad when surgery is over so I can stop worrying about it!

Thank you so much! I'm trying to stay calm 💖

How long did everyone that has already had surgery have to wait to be cleared to drive?

I really appreciate the positivity, I'm so pessimistic and I have had severe anxiety isssues for years. Ugh.

3 days for me too! So nervous!

Thanks! I will definitely be asking for anxiety meds lol. My husband will help me with whatever I need but I will be asking for help from my 14 and 10 year old daughters for help with my 3 year old son which they are good about helping with any way when they aren't all fighting with each other lol.

Thanks! Yeah I'm due for the dreaded monthly visit from Aunt Flo the beginning of next month, thanks for the heating pad tip, I haven't heard that before! ☺

Hi! I'm Linz, 34 years old married mom to 3. I was originally November but changed to December 29th so this Friday. I'm super nervous! Anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you!
