I'm in West Bloomfield, and had my RNY on 3/21/2016 with Dr. Weiner at Huron Valley Sinai Hospital in Commerce.

Where are you having your surgery? Who is your surgeon?

I feel pretty good about the actual surgery but I'm worried about afterwards. I've read that a lot of people get really depressed afterwards. And, as weird as this might sound, I've never been anything but obese so I don't know how I'm going to handle that.

You will do fine. I was nervous for the surgery but it was nothing. I never had any pain meds. I was sore but it wasn't so bad that I couldn't handle it. The barium for the leak test (I had to do it twice) is some of the nastiest stuff I have ever had to drink.

      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.
