Does anyone or has anyone weighed over 400 lbs prior to RNY?

I am in serious need to speak with someone who is 400+ before their RNY surgery. I am anxious, excited, nervous, and apprehensive on what to expect. I will be having my testing in 2 weeks and then the nutrition class the week after. My surgery is the Monday after Thanksgiving. I have been off caffeine since February and carbonated drinks since March. I was put on a carb free diet mid-July and have lost 45 lbs. I have sleep apnea, high blood pressure, and I am borderline diabetic. I also have gall stones so the gall bladder will be coming out. I am just curious of what to expect with someone my size. I am only 5'4" tall and as of 3 weeks ago I weighed 423 lbs. Is there anything special anyone could suggest for me to do? Thank you so much for your help.
