Welcome! And I feel ya hon! All I keep thinking about is that I am 6 days away from the surgery date. I'm already packing my hospital bag and probably over thinking everything!

Oh! And for all of you, when you start packing you bag, let me give you some advice I was given. Pack clothes that are a size or two too big. They put gas in your stomach during the surgery to better get to everything so you'll be a little bloated.

I was going to pack yoga pants so I can wear them when walking the hallways and they can stretch with me.

My RNY is scheduled for March 3rd... ?

Congratulations. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

My revision (to a gastric sleeve) date was confirmed today, 18 March. Can't come quick enough, I am looking forward to moving on.

Have you heard from insurance yet?

All approved and ready to go!

You're sweet for following up, thank you! I started my liver shrinking diet 3 days ago ? I have NEVER been to the bathroom( #1s) so often in my life!!!? All that water is a killer?

Mine is March 3rd!! Five days out but I’m struggling on the all liquid diet. I am so hungry and I’ve been drinking loads of water and protein shakes but still pretty miserable. I’m 9 days in on the liquid diet and I have to admit I’ve taken a few bites of food like broccoli, chicken, sweet peas and a breakfast bar on different nights just to get my tummy to to settle down so I can sleep! I’m looking forward to next Tuesday and for my new life

I don’t know how to use this site yet but I see you have the same surgery date as me March 3rd. How are you doing on the all liquid diet because I’m struggling and I want to eat so badly.

Do your best to not cheat, no matter how tempting it is. I cheated with a scrambled egg 1 week into the liquid diet. The sudden solid food made me so sick

This liver shrinking diet sucks!!! lol

I want food...ok I feel better, my surgery is also on March 3rd getting really excited

Keeping you in my thoughts for a safe surgery and an easy recovery!!!

My operation is scheduled for 3/24/2020

My surgery is Monday March 30th! Best advice I’ve gotten is to start cutting meals out slowly from now to help prepare for the liquid diet before hand ! For everyone with a surgery date congratulations ! I wish you all the best of luck !
