RNY Feb. 13th

I originally began my journey with the intention of getting the sleeve.  However, due to some esophagus issues and GERD we opted to go with the RNY.  I'm nervous because it is more invasive, but I'm excited to begin a new chapter in my life.

Hi there!

Sounds like we had the same beginning. I too, wanted the sleeve at first, but because of GERD and other problems we went with the RNY.

Looks like we're having surgery on the same day too!

I hope all goes well and wish you a very speedy recovery! Good luck! :)

I'm finally getting used to the idea of the RNY now. Are you having to do a 2 week liquid diet? I am on day 4 of mine...down 6.3 pounds so far...it's getting easier.

No, they did not put me on a liquid diet. But i have been on a 1400 calorie diet for 2 months. I've lost 25 lbs. I'm sorry ya have to do the liquid diet. I know that can't be fun.

Hi Gals

 

i also had my surgery last week  it was my first surgery ever so i was super scared it has been a bit painful how are you girls feeling???

I'm feeling pretty good!  I have to be on liquids (optisource) for 2 weeks....I think that's the worst part.  

that sounds great !!! yes the liquids is pretty hard but i think i am getting use to it. how are you doing with the protein  i am doing so bad i just cant get my 80 grams in  i was also having trouble with sleeping but i think its mostly because i am not use to sleeping on my back. but i know it will be worth it.  GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING.
