Looking for April peeps for RNY (Bypass)

[Bino 44]

Hey all you April peeps how would you like to become Facebook friends where we could message each other and get to know each other better. I don't discuss this directly on fb tho. But messenger is a nice fast way to chat. Anyone interested?

I think that's a great idea! You can have a closed group so no one outside the group can see what you are posting.

I just had my second post-op visit with the doc yesterday. Everything is looking good. I'm a week and a half out from surgery and get to start mushies, i.e. mashed potatoes, hummus, Greek yogurt, etc. I feel really good. From the two-week liver shrink diet to now, I've lost 21 lbs.

That's great! Good for you! I bet you feel better just knowing you can start trying some new things.

I wasn't planning on making a new fb for this. Just thought making new friends and adding to current fb account. I actually have a private group for Pittsburgh people. We can do messenger if you'd like. Up to you????

I'm 1 week out as of today. Had gastric bypass on 4/14. Down 11.5 lbs since day of surgery, 21.5 lbs since 4/4. So thankful to finally be losing!!

I'm 5'7"

Highest weight: 299

Preop weight before LS diet: 270

Surgery day weight 260

Current weight: 248.5

Goal weight: 135-140

Anybody name their pouch? Looking for a good one for mine. Toying with a few names but none are just screaming at me. The ones I'm toying with are Polly Pocket, Penelope Pouch, Penny, or Joey (like the baby kangaroo).

Congrats to your great loss! That's exciting! I haven't thought of a name for mine yet. I'm waiting to see how it behaves itself! Lol.

I have 5 days then it's my turn RNY for me!

Surgery is Monday, very excited and not at all nervous (I work in a hospital and fully trust where I am having surgery and my surgeon). I am mentally prepared and ready...lets do this!!

I just got my approval this morning!!! Not sure if I'll be able to squeeze in to April yet, I'll hear from the surgery scheduler on Monday!!
