Newbie here, although I have been lurking for a while. I don't have a date yet, but everything was submitted to the insurance today. I had my stress test and I am worried about the results.

That's awesome I might have to think about doing that too o start pre op on the 17 too and I keep going back and forth too. Good luck and I need a buddy also ;)
I am always on this site. Feel free to buddy me! I am attached at the hip to this place haha. My pre-op is definitely nicer than most here. I get real food! I do not think I will be starving. My stats so far are Hw: 333, CW: 295.3, and height 5'6. Feel free to message me anytime :)

I have to wait 3-5 days to hear from my insurance and the results of my stress test. Part of me feels like it just won't happen. Anyone else felt that way? I'm hoping to be sometime after Oct. 15th. I just found out my son's best friend's mom had rny last June and is very happy that she did. I have to do a two week liquid diet if I get the go ahead. Not looking forward to that! Any books that you guys recommend for rny?

Preadmission testing today I can't believe I am a little over a week away. Feeling nervous and emotional today praying I am making the right decision I want my life back. Hope everyone else is doing ok.

It feels weird knowing i have only 1 more week of regular food to eat.

I only have to have a 4 day liquid pre op diet. Not to shabby.

There is a book out there called "The Big Book on the Gastric Bypass: Everything You Need to Know to Lose Weight and Live Well with the Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery". I have ordered it but it has yet to arrive, expected today. My RNY is in 31 days and counting.

      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.
