January bypass buddies??

[MonkeyNurse 26]

I'm January 11th. I started my 800 calorie pre-op diet today. I'm converting from sleeve to bypass.

I’m On day 3 and I thought the same thing,,, as long as I have unlimited veggies I can manage, although I’m dying for McDonald’s,, stay strong!!! We got this!!!

You'll be fine. Think about next Christmas and the amazing new clothes you'll be able to buy!

I’m set for 1/9. My preop meeting with surgeon is next Thursday 1/4. Getting a little nervous. I’ve never had surgery before but I’ve got to do this. I’m so tired of being overweight. My nephew is getting married in May and I’d love to lose at least 75lbs by then. We’ll see.

I’m scheduled for January 29th... this is a revision from the sleeve to RNY.
Kinda nervous but excited at the same time! I hope we can all keep in touch during our journeys.

I'm doing a revision from sleeve to RNY too. My original sleeve was 5 years ago and I gained back almost all my weight.

I’m on day 3 of mine and am starving too. Lol. I’m really trying to focus on other things and remember it will be worth it in the end.

I work in Whittier Dr. Braverman is doing my conversion surgery. He used to be partners with your surgeon.

I totally agree with you Shelly420! I too am tired of the whole fat thing after 15 years of dieting. I'm looking forward to wearing a swimsuit and not feel fat, to not be the "fat friend", of being able to run and have more energy and stamina. I'd like to lose about the same as you by summer, and then keep on going. I've got a couple of friends who know what I'm doing and who support me, I've told the rest of my friends and my family that I'm having a hernia fixed (this is true too!!). Exciting indeed! Please do let me know how it all goes!!

I'm doing my own preop diet
