I’m so glad to “know” some people here finally having bypass in December. It is good to have more in number so we can encourage each other. I’ve been trying to read and prepare myself with some of the great books one of the members posted about. I am new here but excited to learn more and be a support for each other!

What are some of the books you are reading?

Me too! I'm reading everything I can get my hands on!

Mostly the literature they gave me, online, and watching videos!

Sunnyway mentioned some in a post I read. The ones I’ve read so far and bought are:food junkies, a pound of cure and how weight loss surgery actually works by same author. Also weight loss surgery does not treat food addiction. I haven’t ordered any of the others but probably will. Very insightful books

December 8th!!!! So excited, but kinda nervous now that I have an actual surgery date. Kinda worried if I can actual do this. Anyone else?

Hi! I’m scheduled for December 10th. I am nervous but I’m also excited and I’m looking forward to feeling and looking better. I’m sick of the yo-yo dieting and feeling the way I do. You can do it! WE can do it!! ☺️

I am getting the Sleeve in December- the Dr said the 15th or 22nd but will confirm with me the date when I see him on November 16. My husbands off the week of Christmas because his company shuts down for two weeks every year so he wants it the 22nd. So I am hoping my Dr will let me choose that date!

I am having a RNY revision on Dec 13. I had my first RNY in 2010, lost about 130 lbs. I’ve gained about 40 back and have developed a hiatal hernia, so I’m getting the hernia repair and he will be further reducing my pouch and tightening my stoma.

Dec 8th for me. Technically I'm having the SASI /SIBS procedure. Wish there were more testimonials about it. I'm excited to get started already but also nervous because this is my first ever time going under the knife

      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.
