I just had RNY on 6/21/17. I'm in Copperas Cove, Texas. I'm right near Fort Hood. Good luck with your surgery and I hope you get your date in August! Keep us posted!

I'm down 20 pounds as of today. I'm limited on exercise because I have a broken foot, so I'm losing slower than I'd like. I'm looking to join a gym near me with a pool so I can get some exercise that way. I'm following my docs orders too.

Hi.. I'm only down 10 pounds too since my RNY, It's been slow and I'm walking too. Going back to my yoga in the next week or so and adding the gym. The surgeon said 6/8 weeks recovery.

Hi everyone! I posted early in this thread. Had my RNY on July 5, 1 week post-op! Hope everyone is feeling well!

My surgery is schedules for July 25th! It's almost here! I am required to be on a low carb/high Protein diet for these 2 weeks before surgery. The primary reason for this is to shrink the liver some before surgery. Good luck to all here....Let's do this!!

Hi!! I'm new on the app, but have had my last appt and been submitted to insurance. I have a tentative RNY surgery date for August 7th. Being able to see everyone's experiences is very helpful! Any buddies for August 7th?

Stephi Congratulations!!! How are you doing?

Had my appointment with my surgeon today. Still looking at having RNY and tentative surgery date is September 20th

I had mine on June 9 th. I have to measure precisely. That is ok. I am going to start exerciseing now. I am a diabetic and I have given up my pump and I am doing shots when I need to but having some lows. I just had supper and my blood sugar is 87. Any ideas?

Stephi Congratulations!!! How are you doing?

Hi there! I'm doing well. The first couple of days were not the best. Gas was the worst! Since then it's been okay. I did the Optifast shake for 3 weeks before surgery, so afterwards Protein Shakes were honestly making me sick. As of Monday I was able to start some purées, so that helped a lot!
Where are you at in the process?
