I had RNY on 2/13 as well. Came home around 1pm on the 14th.
I have an rd for hydrocodone, I think... But haven't filled it. Acetometaphin has been keeping the pain in check for me. I'm lucky I know.

Been walking 5 minutes every hour and trying to drink/sip 3-4 oz every half hour.

Yeah.. only carbs from veggies and fruit.. No bread, (or breaded stuff), corn, potatoes, rice, peas.... that sort of thing. It's to shrink the liver so its easier for the doctor to lift to get at the stomach for the surgery.

My surgeon had said during initial consult that if all went well I could be looking at end of January/beginning of February.. So I don't know if that "counts" or not...

Best of luck to you all, how exciting to have your dates!!

That's my date too, just got it this morning.

I"m glad to hear its good! My surgeon's office didnt recommend anything in the way of literature.. but i turned this up on my own search (because hey, librarian!).... and put it on my Christmas list. My MIL already told me I'll be getting it for Christmas. lol!
(At least she's being supportive, right?)

I am thinking unless there's a miracle, I'll more likely be in February than January.

I have one more nutritional visit in December... then in January will get to meet one on one with the surgeon for a consult. Since my first meeting with her was in October 16th, and I have to have these visits at least 90 days I figure that'd put me at Jan 15th or 16th at the earliest to meet with her. Then the practice is to do 3 weeks of a starch-free diet, 2 days of clears..

So while I haven't heard anything officially, I'm betting on mid February for me.

I want to look better naked.. lol
Also, I want to get back to running regularly like I did before I gained the 60lbs I had lost on weight watchers, plus 20 for reinforcement..... I had gotten up to doing half marathons. I want to do those again as well as one day tackle the full marathon.

I'm pre-op -- first NUT visit this Friday... so far I've only lost a human skin, but hope to get as close as I can to losing a newborn giraffe.

I'm pre-op, so don't really know that I am qualified to comment, but a good comeback might be "My doctor is very pleased with my progress." They can hardly argue with a medical professional! Right?
