6 more days til RNY - oh my!



Recommended Posts

Hello All! I'm new here and am feeling nervcited (nervous and excited) for my surgery this Monday! I am doing well on my liquid diet. I am just now getting frustrated with the lack of variety in my options. Especially when I am still cooking delicious meals for my family.

Anyway, I have been thinking about RNY for years now. But I hit my highest weight and lowest point of self esteem ever. So it is time for a change! I can not wait for me to be able to do more things I used to enjoy! I'm sure you all can understand.

I am struggling with the "what ifs" though. I have asked myself what if this goes wrong? My mind imagines the worst outcome and how my husband, kids and family would be...anyway, it worries me. I am keeping my mind focused on the facts and stats that are in my favor! Staying positive and praying!

Glad a friend told me about this page!!

Good luck to you all!

Good luck!! Don't freak yourself out. My surgery was May 17th and very smoothly done. No pain after day 3. It was very easy for me!! I hope it goes the same for you!!

      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.
