Hello I am new here

Hello Everyone. I am new and very excited to be here. I am looking forward to meeting some people and hearing other peoples stories and gaining as much information that I can from the site.

A little about myself. I am 31 yrs old just starting the process. I have picked the hospital and doctor I would like to do my surgery and will be going to my first seminar this coming week.

Welcome and good luck!!

Welcome! Good to have you here! This is a wonderful place for support and information!

Welcome to the MN board!!

If there is anything about the surgery we can help you with just ask.

Welcome to OH!

This will be a very helpful place for you! I noticed you have the same surgeon as me. He did my RNY 12 days ago and I couldn't be happier with the process and outcome so far. Let me know if you have any questions specific to his office!

CONGRATULATIONS on starting this whole process, and for finding OH!  It's a priceless resource for information, support, butt kickings and virtual hugs.  WELCOME!

Hello, I am kind of new here, but really back from when I was first looking into doing surgery.  I am now scheduled for 12/2/09 and am really nervous.  I am struggling with the liquid diet thing and it is a pain!!!   How did you all do it?

What kind of liquid diet are you on?  Full or clear?  I think the best (and easiest) way of getting through the liquid diet is variation.  Mix things up as much as you can.  Don't repeatedly have the same things for every meal, add a little seasoning to things if you can, anything that will mix things up a bit for you.

Congrats on your upcoming surgery date!!  I just had mine on Thursday (11/19) and am home now recovering.  If you ever need someone to chat with just shoot me a message & I can try to be of as much help as I can!!
