Regretting Rny

you know as long as your happy I say GO FOR IT!!! You know I was happy with myself about 10yrs ago. I wouldnt have done the surgery either. But I did it for health reasons ONLY. And I guess I have my days,because today I feel better about the whole thing. WHo knows tomorrow. But everybody says that I look good and that makes me feel better,not only that but I can walk better too But honestly the food thing does get to me. I do know how you feel girl,and I am sorry that you feel bad. Rosie

I felt the same way and my Dr made me wait 1 year to schedule the reversal. I waited the year, still did not feel good and had lots of problems, I waited another 6 months because I was scard to go though the reversal also. After 2 years I am glad I did not have the reversal, but, I know tht if I were to still feel the same way I had, I would reverse the RNY. It is not for everyone. Good luck to you, may God bless you...

I had my surgery May 23rd 2005 so almost 3 weeks ago. It is hard but not as hard as I thought. I really freak myself out before surgery. I just feel blessed that I was able to gain control of my life. I was living to eat not eating to live. There is something really wrong when food controls you and it controlled me. Sure I want to eat things that I can't but it is just not worth it to me. I just keep thinking that "Nothing taste as good as thin feels" and that helps me a bit. You said that you couldn't care less about being skinny and I really don't believe you. You wouldn't have even looked into this surgery if that were the case. You are talking out of fear, fear of the unknown. That is totally understandable. We are all fearful in some way or another. I don't know you personally but I bet by 6 months you won't want a reversal and if you do then I hope all goes well for you. I will keep you in my thoughts. Sandra
