My surgery is next Friday 4/12 and I'm really nervous!! I start the 3 day liquid diet on Tuesday. My last weigh in was Monday and I began a feeding frenzy, eating everything I won't want to eat again. I feel like crap after eating this food which just tells me even more that I've made the right decision to get the RNY. Is anybody else just as nervous as I am??

I don't have a surgery date yet, but I'm already nervous. My Dr. has started me out with a 2 week liquid diet. I already had my "food funeral". Eating whatever I wanted and eating all the places I wanted to. I also felt horrible afterwards, but I honestly don't regret doing it. It was like a last "hurrah" before it's all over!

That's exactly how I feel!! I'm every emotion there is, more excited for a healthier more active life but still so nervous!! I am thankful I only have to do a 3 day liquid diet though!! When did you start your liquid diet?

I'm on day 3. I will have to follow a strict calorie diet for 3 months, then do another 2 week liquid prior to surgery. I'm looking for surgery in mid-late June.

My surgery was on a Monday and Sunday I had to eat light so on Saturday I had my "last supper" and basically before surgery I did eat what ever I wanted. On that Saturday before surgery I ordered a huge bacon cheese burger, I could only eat half -- I guess my guilty feelings took over. So dont feel bad we all do it and I to was nervous, scared, happy and looking forward to a new me :)

My surgery is Monday and oak having a breakdown.I have the lap band and I have felt bulimic for two years until they took the Fluid out of my band a month ago. I've been crying because I finally can eat without throwing up and I'm worried I will be back where I started... sick, fat, unable to eat and still fat. I have eaten everything in site the last two weeks and am now having liquids.< /p>

A friend of mine just had his lapband removed and had the rny done. He is happier already. I think you will be just as surprised at how great you will feel. Stay positive!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
