Hi Not together at the same time, but I did have a hysterectomy March 2014 and RNY 07/30/18. Both are the best things I had done for my health in my life. Not having to deal with a period for all these years have been a blessing and I have had not problems.

Wow, I'm so sorry to see you are having such a difficult time. My RNY was 07/30/18 and I am now 64 lbs down. It truly is a had process and one we deal with of our health's sake. The first 2 months were the worst for me. I feel like I am now dealing better with all the adjustments we have to make in our lives and eating habits. I do trow up about once or twice a week still, but it depends on different things. Am I listening to my body's hints that I am full, like hiccups and sneeze... Yes, for me, those are my key hints that I am full. Am I eating something new today? I try to focus on eating small meals 5-6 times a day. That way I now I have eaten all of the protein I need. On bad days I do not go to sleep until I have downed a bottle of isopure water which has 40 gram of protein! Stay firm. Stay active. Stay focused. It does get better. Congrats of the 70 lbs!

4 days.

Hello I'm ok, I was hospitalized for 4 days. The surgery was good and without complication. I really feel no pain, however, the first night I developed a hiccup for about 6-7 hours. It was terrible. My throat was very sore from the intubation. I am home today, but feel so very tired. Very tired. All in all I feel ok. I'm trying to drink my water and shakes, but I feel full very fast. I ate some sugar free jello, but could only eat 1/4 of it.

It’s that day! Checked in and ready.

Thank you! No not scared of pain. I’ve had a hysterectomy and know pain. It’s part of the road we chose to walk, so if its bad I will deal with it knowing that its just my body healing. If its not bad, well great. Again, thanks.

Thank you so much!

I am all ready. In about an hour I will shower with the chlorhexidine and get a few hours of sleep before its 5:00 and time to go. I'm a little awed, I'm like, I can't believe it's actually tomorrow! Well, I will get back to y'all soon, once I cross over to the loosers bench.

I’m packed ?So ready for this! Tomorrow I’m just going to relax and watch a few movies or read a book to make the day go by super fast. Not nervous, but a bit anxious. I just wanna cross that road, you now?

Stay strong. The 9th day was the hardest for me too. Tomorrow is my 14th day and surgery Monday. Make sure you drink lots of water.

Yes! Keep us posted.

Once I finished all the appointments and test, they submitted paperwork in late May and 12 days later it was approved. I saw Doctor Pohl mid June and a week later surgical coordinator called me with the date. July 30th. I have Neighborhood plus.

Which group do you attend? I go to the one by Warwick mall.
