Hey everyone

It's been awhile since I've been on this site. I had my surgery back in February of 2016 and I have maintained my goal weight for about eight or nine months now. I'm happy to know that we are expecting in June of 2018. My question

Hey everyone,

I am 18 months post-op and hubby and I have recently decided we are going to go ahead and try for baby number 2. This would be my first child post-op and being that I'm 35 years old and have a marina IUD I'm a little concerned but

Hey everyone

So I do have an apt with the nurse tomorrow and was planning to ask her about this but unfortunately my sitter has come down with the flu so I may have to reschedule my apt. Everything has been great so far with recovery and I have

Hey everyone

I had my RNY on Friday the12th and was released on the 14th. I started full fluids on Sunday the 14th so does that mean I start pureed foods this Sunday or is it 2 weeks from surgey date (tomorrow). I was given the booklet with the

Hey everyone. I'm 10 days post op today and so far all the steri strips have come off my one incisions just under my bust. It looks nothing like I thought it would. It's like a tiny paper cut and looks almost fully healed. I'm just wondering if I shoul

So I am currently taking maltlevol 12 for my liquid multi vitamin. I'm only 5 days post op so I am going to be taking liquid vitamins for awhile but I absolutely can't stand the taste of he one I have. It's like I'm drinking a shot of triple sec in tin

Ok so I definitely don't like the protein powder I have now and am already getting tired of the premier ones. Is there anywhere that you can order single servings or sample packs of protein powders? I wanna try them before I buy a big container since t

Well it was finally my turn under the knife on Friday and though the first 2 days were rocky I am feeling fantastic now. My main goal yesterday was to walk the rest of that damn painful gas off and thankfully I think I have. Today my goal was to focus


kaymommy posted a discussion topic 8 years, 2 months ago

Well the actual surgery was way faster then I thought. I was in and out in 45 min. After 2 failed attempts at an IV and some unpleasant mumbled threats I was given some laughing gas before the third successful IV attempt. Shortly after Dr Huynh said we

Well after 14 months of waiting finally surgery day is here. I was scheduled for 9am but got the call last night I had been pushed back to 11:30 so I'm wasting time at the hospital now. I'm waiting for the big wave of anxiety that hits so many people b

So I've been following my pre-op diet to a T. I have all 4 shakes a day spaced 4 hours apart. The taste isn't too bad I can deal with that. It's the exhaustion and hunger. I have days where it's not so bad but on days when my 2 year old is particularly


kaymommy posted a discussion topic 8 years, 2 months ago

Well I am on day 4 of opti 10 more to go. I have noticed this is the first day I've not woken up starving which is nice. I actually didn't have my shake until about 30 min after I woke up. I'm hoping this trend lasts cause I was definitely getting hung


kaymommy posted a discussion topic 8 years, 2 months ago

So I'm on shake 3 of my first day on opti and it's definitely not my favorite thing but I will manage. I do start to feel hungry an hour before my shake so I've been keeping myself busy cleaning during that hour. Today I went through my closet and draw

Well tomorrow's my first day of opti and I think I'm as prepared as I can be. I have my benefiber ready, some mint extract, some sugar free caramel syrup, and ice. This may be the longest 14 days of my life. Is there anything else I should make sure to


kaymommy posted a discussion topic 8 years, 2 months ago

I just realized that my PATTS appointment and Dr Glazer follow up is on day 6 of opti. I don't drive so my boyfriend will be dropping my off at 7am and I will be busing from one appointment to the next. I'm in Toronto until about 3pm then have a 45 min
