You look fantastic!!!! How are you feeling? How did you feel right after your surgery? Did you have many challenges? I'm scheduled to meet my surgeon next week to schedule my surgery. Excited and scared :-)

Congrats!!! I don't know about the pre-op diet since I get my surgery day on May 8th. I've been worried about the liquid diet. I hope you feel better.

I'm in NY as well! Is your surgeon in NYC or upstate? Also, does your surgeon's office have a patient coordinator? I found that they don't mind if you're being a bit aggressive in trying to find out if you are approved and/or trying to get answers. That person would have the same answer, but it might be a buffer so you personally don't have to reach out to your insurance.

Awesome, thanks!

What do you do in situations where you eat out? I won’t be able to avoid that.

Hang in there, I was exactly where you are last week! Claim it, see yourself already having been approved. See yourself trying on old outfits that are way too big now. See yourself in your goal outfit. And do this over and over again. I gave you a followhang in there.

Nooooo. Don't give in! I'm new as well. I received my RNY approval last week and will be seeing my surgeon next week to schedule my surgery. I've been reading entries of people that have had both positive and negative experiences with the surgery, Of course, I've been focused on the negative. But think about the benefits! And besides, I just gave you a follow--so you have to go through with it. LOL. Take care.

I'm new, as in I just received my insurance approval a few days ago. I'm to see my doctor 5/8 to schedule my surgery. Dumping syndrome terrifies me, I'm going to do my best to stay away from foods/drinks that might cause it, but man I feel like I'm headed to the Upside Down. Lol.
