Wow amazing after so much time and effort I'll be going into hospital tomorrow morning...exactly 24 hours I'll be at the hospital. Will be spending today washing and packing everything I need to take, getting a little anxious just hope everything goes smoothly and the recovery is not too hard.. I've done so good I did my own preop diet for 9 weeks just cut out all sugar; junk; and went high Protein low carbs low fats. I'm officially down from highest weight of 322 and today I'm 258lbs ? I assume I'll take on some gas weight but still I'm so happy I'm aiming to get below 200. My ultimate end goal would be 180-190lbs But I'm really hoping this bypass will fix a lot of my medical issues as well.. getting excited and that 2020 will be a whole new year and new life for me this may BE my last post as preop and in hospital I'll be going dark no INTERNET while I'm in hospital just decided I want to take the time TO concentrate on myself and my recovery so you may not hear from me until I return from hospital which could be a few days maybe more... Here in Australia the surgeon won't allow me to leave until I'm doing everything properly and feeling good... Thank you again to everyone and their kind words thus far!! Mikeyy

Might need to check if it's a soda carbonated or not some ppl are told no carbonated

That's great to hear I'm going in tomorrow to have my RNY surgery ?

Yep always go up a few lbs during the day

Revisions are different to a first time surgery*

I live Alone also but I have got a friend to drop me off at hospital and pick me up when I'm done since I live about 2.5 hours away and don't feel like driving that much after surgery... But essentially I'll be in hospital alone! I'm packing a bag just a small backpack*

I Think protein drinks are a great idea to get the best protein in and to hit those goals you need

Excellent work and your skin appears to have bounced back well

Preop I never went over 1000kcal a day but high protein low carbs everyday.. Lost well..

That's heaps well done. 60lbs in what 6 weeks..

Id assume if you started before they changed? But you never know might be best to ring them...

48 hours I'll be at the hospital for my RNY surgery

Fight

Yes doing well but keep your eye on those calories and youngest I know was a 17 and 18 yo girl who had surgery!

Getting closer ppls I know what it feels like after a year of waiting. my RNY surgery is in 2 days

Oh yes avocados should last a while i use it like a paste. Like one teaspoon at a time same with peanut butter good fats but high calories..

You've already had the surgery so just let it play out it's not your problem it's really between your insurance and the hospital

Here in Australia our registration includes CTP so we're all good. Plus I've never ever hit anyone and I've been driving off and on for 15 years. Thank you.

Have you chosen your surgery and got a date yet

That's great I hope I feel good to

So you didn't feel tired and worn out so early post op from lack of food etc

Which insurance are you talking about... Lol I've got an old car don't got insurance on it.. not worth it.. I'm just asking practicality wise...

Thankyou so much for your extensive reply to my queries. Some great information and yes I'll be having RNY bypass. I hope my recovery and restriction is just like yours. Cheers.
