I am set to have my surgery October 7 . I have so excited to began this new journey of my life. I have always been a big girl but after the surgery I can Finley unzip my fat sute once and for all lol. I have been reading posts that are very incourgeing and hopeful that I have made the right choice for me. I would like a surgery buddy lol....

This time next week I'll be on the losers' bench. I'm so excited!

Two weeks from today!!!! Can not wait.

Surgery in one week......October 2nd!!! Had pre op appt today and am starting to get nervous/excited.

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'm in Sydney and 2 weeks ago was rescheduled to tomorrow 26 Sept. Lying in bed clock watching at the moment with only 3hrs left until I need to get up to head to the hospital - excited and anxious all at the same time.

Wow, Skin soon longer October surgery!

How you feeling?

Today is my pre op appt with the surgeon and my pre admission testing. 12 days to go!!!

We are almost there guys <3.

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.

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?

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.

I have final pre op appt October 8, start my 2 week liquid diet on October 16 which I am well stock up for and October 30 is the big day..although im still waiting for something to go wrong but staying positive and fingers crossed...good luck to all!

I'm with ya angel...I only have to do a 5 day clear liquid diet before. It does seem weird to think u only have so many days to eat like everyone else lol

Just got my approval!! Took my insurance (Tricare) less than 48 hours to process once my surgeons office submitted it. Looks like I'm gonna get my Oct date after all : D
