Topic: My date is the 18th!
I am having RNY gastric bypass on the 18th in Fresno, California. I am really starting to get nervous now. I'd love to hear from anybody else on or around the 18th.

Topic: RE: Surgery on June 25th ? Anyone else?
Thanks for the reply Stella. My BMI is 61. Not the highest, but I would like my procedure to be laproscopic. They feel the more I can take off before surgery the better. I am game. I only have enough time to take 3 weeks off at the most, so I would rather not have an open RNY. This is almost two years coming. I want to be ready. You're right. We can do it!

I'm so glad to hear that other people are second guessing themselves, too. My date is the 18th of this month and I have really been getting nervous about my decision. I know that I have researched it extensively and that I am making a good choice, but I am terrified.
Good luck!

Hi Marilyn, my surgery is the day before yours. Why the two weeks of liquid diet before the surgery? I have to drink low carb Slim Fast for 5 days prior, only liquids, no solids food. Two weeks seems like a long time.....But we can do it!! Stella
Topic: Heart Murmer/Englarged Heart
I was wondering if anyone out there could help me with this.....
I have recently found out that I have a heart murmer and enlarged heart.....Complete surprise when I found out.....Does anyone else have this, and has/had it stopped you from having WLS? I will be having the lap-band procedure...
Thank you so much!!!!!

I live in MN but it'll be nice to have someone close to the same point in the process that I am. I start my 2wk liquid diet on Monday the 9th. I'm hoping it's not as challenging as I think it will be!
Topic: RE: lap band fills
Hi,
I just called the bariatric center I go to this am and was told they are between $60.-$65.00 a fill. I am in Maine.
They also bill the insurance first and then you any difference.
I guess for once Maine is cheaper on something.
