HAPPY NEW YEAR...I'M NEW HERE

i am going to have my RNY done on Monday, January 3, 2005. i am so afraid of the procedure failing me. after reading all of the negative things here on this website, i must say that it has really taken off the rose colored glasses. i will be so disappointed if i have any of the problems that are posted on this site but i can not help but think that these things will happen to me. i feel really bad for all of you that have encountered problems from your WLS. i hope your problems can be resolved. Lynn

HI Lynn, Good luck on your surgery Monday. I am 3 days post op and this is the first time on this site. I am hoping to have success.....as much as possible. I want to loose enough weight to feel better and to get off all the meds I now take. I will keep you in my prayers. Deets

good luck to you Deets. i'm glad you made it through to the other side. i hope we never have the problems that are mentioned here on this website.

I READ YOUR COMMENT AND ALL I HAVE 2 SAY IS LYN, U BE BLESSED. I AM ALSO NEW TO THE SITE, HAVEN'T READ ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT WLS UNTIL NOW, BUT NOT EVERY STORY IS YOUR STORY. TRYTO FOCUS ON YOUR SUCCESS AND NOT ANYONE ELSE'S FAILURE. ( NOT THAT THEY'VE FAILED) GOD BLESS YOU, AND YOU'LL DEFINATELY BE IN MY PRAYERS.

Hope your surgery went well lyn. I don't like to think of things going wrong. I believe everything happens for a reason and some times they are out of your control. Some people will lead you to believe that failure is out of something that you have done and that is not always the case. I am waiting on my insurance company for my revision. I have stapleline disruption. It did not occur out of something that I did. I got H pylori that ate a hole in my stapleline. So hang in there because most people are successful with their surgery, I have many many friends who are still successful and there are many many more who visit this site every day who have all succeeded in their weight loss venture and are keeping it off every day. Good Luck to you and be blessed. Tina
