Hello All! I have just joined, but have been reading these forums for several months. Very helpful information. I will be having my RnY bypass surgery scheduled as soon as my surgeon gives the final approval. All insurance hoops done! Was told he would take about a week, then I could be scheduled about 6 wks from that time. Hoping for mid-March surgery date! VERY excited to do this.

I would love to follow along with others just starting out. We can really help each other!

My biggest concern is the expected period of depression shortly after surgery. I will probably post then, if I need help. I have the best, most supportive husband ever, so I'm sure he will be doing all he can to help me. I am so lucky!

Good luck LGN900! Keep us posted! God Bless and prayers for you!
