Dec. 28th!!!

Hi, I'm new to this board, but my RNY is Dec. 28. I'm reallly excited. Surgery doesn't scare me, it's the hard work afterward. The posts are very encouraging though.

Hi Lorrie, Welcome to the board. I just want to wish you the best of luck in the coming days. Let us know how your surgery goes. Post any questions you may have. Joanne

Good luck to you. Afterwards, its not that bad, it is work though. Remembering all the waiting and dont drink with meals, chew your food, etc. A couple of times I forgot and took a big gulp of water so I had to be careful about swallowing too much at one time. I start soft foods tomorrow and for the next 4 weeks so that should prove to be interesting. I was on liquids for the past 2 weeks. It was not difficult because I was not hungry, its just that you want to chew something every now and then. Let us know if you have any questions and keep us posted once you are home! Angela
