I'm having the bypass done. My insurance isnt covering the sleeve at this time and I hate lap bands so RNY it is. I'm not going to complain though because honestly with all the info and support you find on here, I feel better prepared. I was dead set on the sleeve but I'm actually happy with RNY now too. Your plan sounds like a great idea. you will get to focus on healing. -

I keep starting to clean out my cabinets but then I get side tracked lol. Between my 3 kids and being so nervous I find a million other things I need to do lol. I've heard of the milk diet and I do not envy you for that lol. I am stocking up on sugar free jello so that I will have some texture. -

Welcome to our little thread!!! I know how you're feeling. I'm terrified but soooo excited. I thought June wouldn't get here fast enough but it seems like the days are flying by now lol. I started to slowly buy stuff for my preop and post OP diet. What kind of preop diet are you having to do? -

June 2019!!! Surgery Siblings!!!
BulletWithButterflyWings replied to BulletWithButterflyWings's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I just got my call from insurance yesterday with my approval and date. They said I should be hearing from my surgeon within a few days to let me know next steps and details leading up to surgery!!! I am so excited! I'm so excited for you love!!! Your stats are very close to mine btw. My HW was 293 and I'm 5 ft 2. I'm beyond ready to meet with my surgeon next week to finish going over everything. -
Approved!!!
BulletWithButterflyWings replied to ArmyW!feLori's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It really depends on their requirements. I found a loophole in mine though. I was able to use dr appts from the last year or so as long as it had my weight on it and some sort of notes. I only needed 6 of those and had 4 so I only had to go to 2 pcp appointments for them to approve me on the diet part of it. -
Nicotine test
BulletWithButterflyWings replied to Brando_2019's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I smoked for 4 years and I tested negative 3 weeks later. I vape 0mg nicotine now though and that has helped tremendously with quitting. I was a pretty heavy smoker too. -

Welcome to our dysfunctional and beautiful family!!! This place has helped me so much so far. It really helps knowing there are more people out there dealing with the same thing and knowing we are here to help each other. Your surgery is just a little over a month away. I bet you're so excited!!! What kind of preop diet do you have to do? Mine is 2 weeks of liquid only. Yuck lol -
June 2019!!! Surgery Siblings!!!
BulletWithButterflyWings replied to BulletWithButterflyWings's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
You're only 5 days behind me!!!! It's nice to meet you btw and welcome to our awesome June thread what kind of preop diet are they having you do? -
So how did everyone get past any fear you had? I'm so terrified of dying on the table, dying from malnutrition, or complications. On the other hand, I'm so excited that I can't stand it lol I'm having the surgery no matter what but I wanted to know if these feelings are normal or if I'm just being a paranoid psychopath....
