OK I've Done It!

I have finally scheduled my surgery! Yeah! I am soooooo excited. Aug. 25th for a laproscopic RNY. I realize this is a big step in my life but one that is desparately needed. My energy level at this point is negative and I know there is more to life than this. Is there anything anyone would recommend before surgery? My insurance will not pay for it so I am having to pay for it myself but know it will be well worth it. Can't wait!

SOOOO HAPPY for you. I believe now is the time to start those behaviors you will need to really enforce after the surgery. get your vitamins..start them now...it can't hurt....start drinking your water....try and make it habit. Use this time to educate your self about everything. This is SOOO worth it. This is a tool and you will probably mess up some times but getting back on track is easier with this tool. Congradulations on your date!! Eileen

Thank you Eileen for the advice. I didn't think about starting my vitamins now. That is a great idea. My surgeon also told me to start exercising but I just don't have the energy at this time. I know it will be there later! How are you doing with your weight loss? I noticed you had your surgery in Feb. Hope all is well! Did you have any complications? Becky
