December 2017 Gastric Bypass!

So I have a (likely) surgery date of December 13th, pending insurance approval. Any other people having a gastric bypass in December and want to be buddies? I hope we can keep this thread going as we prepare for surgery, and after!

Will do! :)

Hi all December surgery buddies. I am scheduled for December 5th. I seem to be older than most on these sites. I'm 63 and excited but anxious too. Looking for buddies to follow my journey with. Hoping everyone has a easy and successful surgery.

You are not alone! We are about the same age, height and weight and I am having RNY on December 27...nervous...but excited to start my new life!

So, I’m 16 days from my surgery!! This weekend I went shopping and got my protein powder and drink, clear liquids, and made veggie broth and popsicles.

I’m getting really excited!! I’m leaving on a cruise this weekend, get back on Sunday the 10th, and leave Monday for Mexico. I only have to do 24 hours liquid but I can’t gain any weight so I’ve got to be super careful on the cruise.

It’s getting real!!!!

That sounds amazing! What a wonderful way to wait out having surgery by having a vacation first. Enjoy yourself![emoji2]
