Hey ladies - I’ve been absent a few days and way behind. My dad’s health has deteriorated and he’s been put in hospice. Just spending all the time I can with him and supporting my mom.



I’ll try and check in as I can.

Had my RNY yesterday afternoon. Wasn’t mentally prepared for the internal pain... Wowsa. But everything looks good so far, and I’ll start drinking Water in the morning tomorrow.

Thanks for all the posts on this forum- I’ve referenced many of them over the past year and am grateful to have this place as a resource!

Congrats! Best wishes

Morning all. Today is it. Heading out shortly for checking for my surgery. Feeling calmer then I was. Still a little anxious. All of your prayers would be appreciated.

Praying for you! But I know you will be fine.

This sounds similar to the liver shrink diet that I will follow in a couple weeks. Two shakes (breakfast and Lunch) .. dinner consist of the following:

3 oz lean meat

steamed veggies or salad with fat free dressing

6 unsalted crackers or 2 slices low calorie bread or 1 small baked potato

1/2 cup fruit or 1 small piece of fruit

Hope this helps!

I'm being discharged and going home! I was expecting to stay until tomorrow but my surgeon says everything looks great and I'm managing the pain so I can go.

I'm all done! Anesthesia makes me super sick so I was a whiny baby for a few hours after surgery but now I just feel sore and a little gas pain in my shoulder. Morphine pump is probably helping on that front 🤣🤣

On my local news there has been reports of shrinks and their strange practices. One lady was whipping her patients!! Crazy...

I received approval from BCBS last week. Surgeons’ office called today. I go see him next week to get a date!! I’m excited and nervous!

Hello, so I've been wanting to have weight loss surgery for a few years now, but haven't because I've been worried about something...and have felt to awkward to ask anyone over the last few years.

I know that you have to get a complete physical before hand right? My only thing is, I know a complete psychical for a woman includes a pap smear, and pelvic exam, correct? I don't want to get too personal, but I was sexually abused throughout my childhood and I have always turned down these exams in the past as an adult. I know how stupid it sounds, but it's just something I absolutely do not want to go through with.

My question is, do I absolutely need a pap/pelvic exam for weight loss surgery? If I opt out, will my physical exam still be "complete"?

Congrats! Wishing you the best today!!

Any in Memphis, TN?

Good luck! Keep us posted on your progress!

@gully90 Hi. Was wanting to check on you. Hope you’re feeling better!

Congrats @ lamoore1216
