I'm a PreOp RNY patient. I'm scheduled for surgery May 22,2012. I'm on a quest for support and to become more knowledgeable for what lies ahead for me.

I had some question about about what a Secret Pal is... but anyway.  I'm hoping to get my date in the next few weeks for the VSG.  Congrats on getting your date.  How are you feeling these days?  what kind of pre op diet do you have to do?
 Let 's keep in touch.

  Hey NewMe,   
 Honestly, I'm not 100% sure what a Secret Pal is, I just thought that I would be something fun to do.
Thanks so much and I'm very excited about about my surgery date. After so many years of thinking about the surgery I can't believe that I'm only a few weeks away! Well these days I have very mixed emotions. The closure it gets the more fearful I get of the unknown, but I know there's no turning back now. Yes I have to do a two week liquid diet. I gave found a fantastic protein drink called Unjury. Girl it is simply amazing!!! Do you have to get an IVF filter? I do. Let's keep in touch! I wish you all the best!
