Hermitage, PA person here.

Hey everyone.  I'm John.  Scheduled for my surgery on March 19th.  Excited for a new life change.   Looking to see if more people in my area are about to do it or have done it.  I start my 1 week liquid diet on Tuesday the 12th.  I would post a pic but every pic I try to post no matter how small says it's to big.  

I have used this site alot to learn alot about what I have in store for me.

Hi John!

     I'm not from your area but I just wanted to wish you luck with your surgery on the 19th.  What type of surgery will you be having.  I had an RNY almost 4 years ago.  It was one of the best decisions I ever made.  Before my surgery I was on a liquid diet for 10 days and that was the worst part of the whole process for me.  Keep us posted on your progress.  Feel free to ask any questions - usually someone on here can give you an answer or point you in the right direction.  Take care.

Sorry John - just saw that you are having the RNY.  My bad.
