I wrote a short article about my experience with RNY gastric bypass surgery. Here is a link. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf

I would recommend 2 things at your stage.

1. Walk 30 minutes per day. That will help the recovery process go much smoother.

2. Cut out all caffeine now. I suffered through a week of severe headaches and body aches when I gave up my 6 diet coke a day habit. You do not want to mix caffeine withdrawal with the effects of surgery.

Thank you. I have started walking. Caffeine thank goodness is not an issue for me. Thank you for the article. Was a great read.

Anyone in VA getting ready for RNY?
