Hi there, looking for a July 30th buddy. Having RNY. Just about 6 weeks away. Yikes, it's coming up fast!

Im scheduled for aug 4th. And getting scared. How about you?

I agree @joanncann. I go up and down on how I feel about. I'm so excited to have it done, but scared on the actual procedure and being in pain. I have a high tolerance to pain, but not sure how much I will be able to handle. Which procedure you having done?

Hi, I'm scheduled for gastric bypass surgery on July 27th. I'm feeling like you cdesimone. I'm excited one minute and nervous the next my emotions are all over the place LOL.

Exactly luvme4eva. Can't believe its right around the corner. When do you start your liquid diet? I start mine on the 16th.....ugggg lol

My surgery date is July 30th ????

Awesome @@tcon!!! Looking forward to this.

@@cdesimone I see my dietician on the 14th I guess she'll let me know then she'll also be taking my before and after pics plus showing my around the wls floor in the hospital. But she has me already taking my optisource vitamins they are chewable not that good but not that bad either. @@tcon congratulations

@@cdesimone good luck on your liquid diet please keep me posted I'm sure I will start mine soon after you. Just remember to take it one day at a time.

Cdesumone, I'm having gastric bypass. How about you?

I'm having RNY August 4th and I'm nervous as heck. I too keep changing my mind from one minute to the next even though I know I want and need the surgery.

I'm having the gastric bypass as well. When I started this back in February, I thought to myself well I'll see what the next appointment brings. And I just kept going with it. I know I want it, but scared of it too. So right now, its a date to me and I'm driving myself torward that date. I've scared, happy, nervous, excited....everything! So glad I have this place to just express myself freely where I know others might feel the same way. ????

I literally emailed my coordinator every day for a week switching between the sleeve and bypass until she told me I wasn't ready and scheduled another doctors talk. I know I'm ready, I had the band and did great for 5 years until it was removed for medical reasons. I know I can deal with restriction. It's just the invasive procedure that scares me. Overall, I'm excited and hopeful all will be well.

@cdesimone. I know just how you feel. Same here!

Awesome @@tcon!!! Looking forward to this.

Yes! It's approaching fast! Good luck and please keep in touch. When do you start your liquid diet?

I should be starting mine on the 16th. I have my "teaching" appointment with my nutritionist on Tuesday, so I should get more info then.
