I had my RNY on July 3, 2012 I had alot of pain with the drain & nausea the day after They kept me an extra day in the hosp Did a CT Scan to check the size of my Old Stomach I also had ultrasound of my legs Both test ended up being fine & the nausea went away Thankfully! I seem to be really good since leaving the hosp. on Fri. The day of my surg I weighed 269. When I had my 1st appt in March I weighed 286. I went for that appt to talk with the Dr. about Lapband & before we left he talked us into RNY. I have an Aunt who passed away from weight & diabetic complications just 2 days after my 1st Dr visit So that was my conformation that I had to change my path. Since March I have lost a total of 21lbs! I have no health complications & a Wonderful Life ahead of me! I have 2boyz I want to be around for & able to do things with. I have been fighting head hunger but other than that seem to be doing good So glad to have found the App Very Helpful!

Seeing my kids eat things i once loved is still hard... i just try to eat before they eat so i don't get tempted to take a bite.

I am a month out and it is getting easier but pizza and ice cream were my favorite but learning to deal with it. I am already falling in love with the new me. I am down almost 50lbs which to me is worth not have that kind of food. Just remember with this new life we will be able to keep up with our kids and be there for them which to me is the most important thing in the world.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
