I did not go thru any revisions but RNY was the best decision I could have made for my well being and my family's. Personally, I have no regrets and I would do it again in a heartbeat if I had to.

I just had my revision from lap band to RNY on Wednesday. I came hone from the hospital today. First things I notice are no hunger, no reflux, the weird tightness in my neck is gone. I don't have regrets but it is super early for me.

Did I mention no hunger? :)

Yes! I should have done it sooner! A lot sooner like 100lbs sooner. Best decision I ever made, but I kick myself about thinking I was better than it and would "do it on my own" :(

Should have done it sooner.

Surgery date 7/25/12

It's the best thing you'll do for you.

That said, the longer out you are, the Tougher it will be. So use your first year to two well and eat a clean as you can to get to goal! Work your surgery!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
