APPROVED for April 24 th

Good luck to you kim. you will love it!!

glad to see you here, jac!
I can't believe how busy this week has been. lots of stuff coming up..
come home soon!

Hi Kim,
Congratulations! No words of advice here as far as the work thing. As far as dietary concerns your surgeons office may have a protocol they want you  to follow.
I had lap RNY so no binder was necessary. If they don't  give you one try a tummy control panty, the ones with a diamond shape in the front.

All the best

THANK YOU ALL --- Am getting excited here !!!

Congrats!  I had open RNY and did not have a binder.  I took six weeks off from work then had two weeks of 1/2 days following.  I could have gone back sooner but at about 4 weeks out my energy depleted and I needed every minute of the time I had.  As for what to have post op,,,check with your surgeons office.  I had carnation instant breakfast (sf of course), sf popsicles, sf pudding and sf jello and skim milk.  It was all I could do to get the shakes in and did not use anything else at all until about a month out.

Best of luck to you. I would just recommend EAS protein shakes, sugar free popsicles and pudding, and refried beans. Please keep us posted. And ask any questions you may have.
