Just seeing if anyone is scheduled already for August 2020 with all this COVID stuff going on and people being pushed back farther and farther.

Starting to get nervous. My surgery is on Thursday. My “I got the attitude” is wavering lol

Mine is also Thursday, and I'm losing my nerve a bit.

Mine is still scheduled for tomorrow morning, but hey it’s Florida, they probably would not cancel if a cat 5 was coming through.

Well I am never overly excited about any surgery. Lol but better still concerned that during my liver shrinking diet I never lost any weight, and I followed my diet. No one else seems to concerned, I was told everything from water retention to my body could have gone into starvation mode. Idk wish I could tell what my liver is doing lol

how are you today?

I had my RNY yesterday and everything went great. The pain was minimal and close to none at all.
My stomach just feels really sore like I did a ton of crunches. I Also had a morphine pump with a button I could push if needed for pain or to stay ahead of any potential pain. It was fantastic! I’ve been up and walking a lot and am now home. I also have had zero gas pains thus far. Fingers crossed it continues to be this smooth. Good luck to those getting their procedure soon.

Great to hear that and I hope your smooth journey continues for you. Keep us posted as you go. I'm starting to get nervous, my op just a week away and really helpful to hear from you guys.

Counting down the hours till surgery. Passing the time by watching TikTok and just stuck my phone in my mouth. Sooo that’s where I’m at in my life lmao.

How you doing Mellie! Hope you post an update on how it went for everyone good luck!?

I'm flying home today (had my operation on the 10th), other than a bit of an odd reaction to the anaesthetic it seems to have all gone fine. My surgeon said he would like to do a 120 cm (rather than the more standard 60 cm) bypass of my intestine.... not really sure why but I went along with it.

Not eaten anything yet, just been on water. Tbh I am nervous about drinking too much in one go.... when will I be able to drink normally?

So far it's been smooth sailing. No real pain. Stomach is just very sore. Trying to stay on the water/shake schedule they gave me is hardest of all!
