Topic: RE: Got my date 12-28-09 RNY
I'm with you ladies, my surgery date is Dec. 28th!!! And I still worry that something is gonna come up and I'll get a call saying "Sorry, we were just kidding, no surgery for you".
And I had a stomach virus this week and was very ill, and it made me wonder if that's how I'm gonna feel after surgery???
So many worries and what-if's.

I am pretty sure its standard, but comes in different forms. It is supposed to "clean" you out and shrink your liver. I am definetly getting cleaned out. It's the worst part of the diet. Very gassy and diarhea. Sorry if TMI. The empty feeling has went away by day 4, now I don't want anything bu****er and maybe some yogurt once in awhile. I have already lost 3lbs.
I go for my pre-op on the 14th. Goodluck at yours.

I wonder if the liquid diet is standard before surgery. I go for my pre-op doctors appointment .
feeling "empty" is why I want to have the surgery. Hunger feel like anxiety to me.

Deb,
A year is a long time to wait. I hope that it goes well for you. Do you have people asking if you think you can stick to the diet afterword? To me that is like asking someone in drug rehab if they really think that they can stay off the drugs. There is a judgement that if you failled in the past, you will fail again. Sometimes, I think that people believe that they can say anything to you if you are fat. I shouldn't be so sensitive, I guess but I could use some support instead of judgement.

After 6 long months of going through the process, I was so relieved to get my insurance approval the day after it was submitted! I had all the pre-op stuff done today, and now I'm just waiting for 12/22 for my final mtg with the surgeon and D-DAY!!!!

Positive attitude!!! Good for you!! I'm in Southern. California and my revision/gastric bypass is the 18th also.
I had the lap band put in 12-12-07. It never held a fill so the dr is removing it and then doing the bypass.
Where in Calif are you?
