New here! April 17th for RNY…liquid diet starts April 3rd

Couple of us are the 17th too! Luckily I’m not a liquid diet. Mine is an 800 calorie food based diet. Today’s the start of a new adventure for us! Good luck 😊

I will be sleeved April 28. My pre-op diet is odd. 2 weeks of a morning Protein Shake (my choice as long as its 25-30 grams of protein). Both lunch and dinner can only be a Healthy choice brand Steamer select or Cafe steamer Meal.

I hear. My headache went away on day 10. Gatorade was a lifesaver.

My surgery date was bumped from 04/17 to 04/26. I was pretty upset for about 15 minutes but the surgeon had to reschedule his day. I had just started the liquids that morning and when I got off the phone with the coordinator I made myself eggs with avocado and hot sauce. I like having the extra sets to prep myself mentally and gather my Proteins and liquids. So, onward and upward for the 26th!

My insurance just decided yesterday that they want to do an additional medical review and that they will let me know THE DAY BEFORE my surgery (4/14) if I am approved. I’m already on day 5 of the liquid diet and this seems unethical to do to someone.

3 days post op & I feel good! Some minor gas pains but WALKING DEF HELPS!! Just saw my Primary & says I can drive as long as Im not taking any narcotics, which I’m happy say I don’t need! I see my surgeon next week.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
