Newbie here, although I have been lurking for a while. I don't have a date yet, but everything was submitted to the insurance today. I had my stress test and I am worried about the results.

That's awesome I might have to think about doing that too o start pre op on the 17 too and I keep going back and forth too. Good luck and I need a buddy also ;)
I am always on this site. Feel free to buddy me! I am attached at the hip to this place haha. My pre-op is definitely nicer than most here. I get real food! I do not think I will be starving. My stats so far are Hw: 333, CW: 295.3, and height 5'6. Feel free to message me anytime :)

I have to wait 3-5 days to hear from my insurance and the results of my stress test. Part of me feels like it just won't happen. Anyone else felt that way? I'm hoping to be sometime after Oct. 15th. I just found out my son's best friend's mom had rny last June and is very happy that she did. I have to do a two week liquid diet if I get the go ahead. Not looking forward to that! Any books that you guys recommend for rny?

Preadmission testing today I can't believe I am a little over a week away. Feeling nervous and emotional today praying I am making the right decision I want my life back. Hope everyone else is doing ok.

It feels weird knowing i have only 1 more week of regular food to eat.

I only have to have a 4 day liquid pre op diet. Not to shabby.

There is a book out there called "The Big Book on the Gastric Bypass: Everything You Need to Know to Lose Weight and Live Well with the Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery". I have ordered it but it has yet to arrive, expected today. My RNY is in 31 days and counting.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
