I'm very excited to finally have a surgery date! We've been waiting for a while now. Congratulations to everyone with upcoming surgeries and good luck!

Good luck and keep us posted on your progress!

Just an update : My surgery was Dec 15. RNY gastric -bypass : was walking around 2-hours after surgery, 1 night in hospital : Never nauseous, pain was MINIMAL ! NO gas cramps, My lower intestines' rumble from time to time but no pain. Since my surgery I have lost 20 LBs !!!!!! 8 days WOW I'm sure a lot of that has been water , but still nice to see.. I have no issues with anything I consume except really cold or hot stuff....so I just let it get to more of a normal temp. NO hunger at all, I have to remember to eat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fluid intake are struggle to get to 32oz a day. I've had five surgeries before this one : appendix, molars, both knee meniscus tears, one knee twice. This by far has been a breeze compared the others : So each is different : but some of us come thru the procedure very well ! hope this is your case : BTW I was very Obese 380lbs 5"8"

Thats awesome!

Congratulations! I'm hoping for the same outcome...Thanks for sharing the good news!

Congrats on getting your surgery date. That's such a big step, isn't it, getting it nailed down and making it real? Good luck on your WLS journey and keep us posted.

My surgery was rescheduled due to rising covid cases from November 30th and now I’m having surgery on Jan 11th. Something about it feels right this time.

Yay! I'm so happy for you. I know I'm excited about mine on the 12th. I have my pre-op visit with my surgeon tomorrow morning. I don't look forward to the 2 wk pre-op diet, at all. I can see you will not have to do a very long pre-op diet, which is good for you. I wish you all the luck, and keep us posted.

Hi everyone...I have a Jan 16th surgery date. Wishing you all the very best with your journeys and looking forward to sharing positive outcomes! ?

Welcome to the groups. I am excited too. My surgery is scheduled for Jan 12th. I am on my fun pre-op diet. I am on my 3rd day and it hasn't been fun. However, It is all going to be worth it in the end, which is actually only the beginning of our brand new journey of eating and living.. congrats
