Hey Guys!

 

Im 5 weeks post-op (RNY).  I am having pain when Im eating & drinking.  Not in the pouch itself but at the top of my esophagus. I am not eating quickly and Im taking small sips.  Anyone know what this could be?

Hey post-op peeps!

 

what do you do about the chocolate cravings?   I don't mean like 'hey, i'd like a piece of chocolate' but the insane 'momma gotta have it!!!!!!!' cravings.

Hey!

 

I'm 4 weeks out of RNY.  I'm having a chocolate craving and was wondering if I could have a very small piece of a Pure Protein Chocolate Deluxe Protein Bar.

 

Thanks Guys!

So I have been going back and forth about this for a while.  I am having RNY on July14 and I can't decide what I want to do after surgery.  Part of me tells me that I want to get on the scale every day and see how awesome it is that I'm loosing weight.

SO, I have my last diet appointment next week.  They will send my paperwork to Cigna before I leave the office. Im super nervous about this.  Im worried that, since my appointment isn't as soon as I wake up, my weight will be just slightly higher than

Hey All!

 

What did you guys do in the hospital after your surgery, but before you got home.  Im trying to plan for things to do, but I don't know how much pain I'll be in or what my attention span will be like. 

 

Thank

Hello All!

I have Cigna as an insurance provider and they have stringent requirements for approval of the RNY procedure.   I have no problem with the evaluations and the psychiatric stuff, etc.  However, this 90 day supervised diet thing is kil
