RNY WAS THE BEST DECISION EVER + MY BDAY IN 3 SLEEPS!



Recommended Posts

Well I hope everyone is feeling good.

Here in Australia in my state we are pretty much virus free thank God.

Most of our shops are open and life is getting back to normal..

It is the middle of winter so been in front of the heater and just feeling good realising my BIRTHDAY is coming this Sunday...

This year has gone so quickly.

I'm 9 months post op and feeling amazing and just feeling appreciation for where I am in life right now and it's the first birthday in like 20 years I've felt this good and finally starting to love myself again.

i do still have some anxiety issues and self esteem issues which I've just started seeing a new psych so that should help me transition to the new me.

I know I look good and I feel good and I get compliments from strangers which is nice but it takes time to gain confidence and to be able to put yourself out there and meet someone..

My health is great. My weight is good but my life is not complete until I start a family 😁

Just the other day someone thought I was 30 which feels good since I'll be 36 this weekend but feel 26 😁

I also want people to know that the bypass RNY has done amazing things for me and to not feel scared, to have confidence in your DECISION.

I've lost all my excess weight and kept it off and happy with myself.

It takes alot of commitment, you cannot slack off, you cannot give in, you have to be ready to change your life and change your way of thinking!!!

Anyway i know there's a few people who can't handle my humour or my personality but that's fine, I have plenty of family and friends who love me for me and that's what counts!!

I LOVE ME TOO.

SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.

i will treat myself for my birthday I think I've earnt that.

Thank you.

      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.
