my rny is scheduled for valentines day! my nutritionist wants me to start my liquid diet this Thursday 3 weeks before my surgery.. I'm so nervous! she wants me to have 6 shakes a day no food at all and she said I can snack with sugar free Jello and Popsicles .. how did everyone do it!? I need to get my mind focused on my ultimate goal ! the most challenging thing for me is I'm a stay at home mom to my 2 yr old daughter , who I have to feed Breakfast lunch and dinner so avoiding food is almost near impossible ! anybody that has any tips for me I would greatly appreciate it!

I just stared my two week liquid diet. When I am tempted to eat, I just think about what the end result will be after surgery! Stay strong. You can do it.

I am scheduled for RNY Valentines Day, as well. I do a pre-op on Feb 5 and meet with the nutritionist for the 3rd time, but I don't know if I will be required to do a liquid diet. Just keep your eye in the prize and if u slip up, brush it off and carry on! You will do fine.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
