Funny that we have no one on the first,I guess bariatric surgeons must not operate much on Fridays.

I meet with my surgeon on Tuesday but does anyone know the answer to these questions?

How soon after surgery can I drive?

Will I have a drain after my laparoscopic rny?

Will I wake up with a catheter?

One week after surgery

Depends on your surgeon and what he sees before ending your surgery

Yes

Paid off Macy's and kohl's cards until after surgery and weight loss......pre lapband 2008 250lbs, down to 199 lbs.

Band revision 2009 due to leak, problems with new band gained now 230lbs pre RNY.

No pre diet thank God.

Excited and nervous...Hope we meet Kat77 since we are at same hospital, same surgeon and same date we can walk the halls

The liquid hasn't bother me much I got different flavors since I will be using it a while my Dr only let's you use Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacements during pre op I like the iced late banana gets a little much for very long but when you mix it with chocolate its better THE only thing is it gives me diarrhea and makes my stomach doesn't mater what I mix it with first I mixed with 4 oz skim milk & 4oz Water then tried only water no difference so then tried sf soy vanilla milk and water I'm allowed 2 cups milk a day It just makes them taste a little better I think not using all water I've had to do liquid diet for a month 2 weeks 2 shakes and 1 meal I have a hard time with 2nd shake I'm just feel full have to start Thursday on only 5 shakes and liquids not sure if I can do 5 any suggestions or anyone else having that problem

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
