6 more days til RNY - oh my!

Hello All! I'm new here and am feeling nervcited (nervous and excited) for my surgery this Monday! I am doing well on my liquid diet. I am just now getting frustrated with the lack of variety in my options. Especially when I am still cooking delicious meals for my family.

Anyway, I have been thinking about RNY for years now. But I hit my highest weight and lowest point of self esteem ever. So it is time for a change! I can not wait for me to be able to do more things I used to enjoy! I'm sure you all can understand.

I am struggling with the "what ifs" though. I have asked myself what if this goes wrong? My mind imagines the worst outcome and how my husband, kids and family would be...anyway, it worries me. I am keeping my mind focused on the facts and stats that are in my favor! Staying positive and praying!

Glad a friend told me about this page!!

Good luck to you all!
