Me too! I was the third but they rescheduled because of the weather.

Had RNY on 3rd. Went home on 5th.

I'm so glad to hear that everyone is going good! Mine is on the 10th, and I'm so nervous about surgery and everything after surgery!

You will do great! after the initial discomfort, you will feel stronger each passing day. I had sleeve on 3rd and realized today I needed to set timer for sips of Protein and Water or I would not get enough of either. 15 mins between sips, and I am finally finishing one 8 oz shake and had plenty of water. Good luck😇😇😇

First few days I tot I was back to normal and drank like normal...big mistake...I got the foamies after that. Terrible vomiting. Now I am just sipping for the whole day. Hopefully no more foamies.

I'm sure this feeling will pass, so please take it with a grain of salt, but post op day 4 and I am having major regrets. I can't even drink a full bottle of Water in a day, and if i see one more food ad, I'm gonna scream. Feeling like i should have tried harder at dieting. Just waiting for the feeling to pass. This is normal, right?

I had surgery jan 3rd!! So far so great. I was very anxious prior. The first 3-4 days are a big adjustment. Today, post op 5 days, I feel good getting in all liquids, Protein Shakes and walking!!

I think this must be normal hun. It's a huge change and the early days will be tough. You should be really proud for taking the steps needed for a healthier you xxx

Help me guys! I am due for my surgery next Tuesday the 16th, but I have blown my pre-op diet three different times. I think it’s because I have not gotten approval yet from my health insurance company, I just don’t think it’s real! I know I should just do what they say, beyond liquids for two weeks just in case, but I’m having a really hard time! Help me out give a girl a hand and prayer and any advice you have!

So I go in for surgery on the 10th. My insurance company approved me for on day inpatient stay and said this is the average stay for gastric bypass. How long were you in the hospital?
