I FEEL GREAT!!!!!
Aug 21, 2007
I went today for my 2 week appointment with the nutritionist. I have lost 21 lbs, plus I got to eat 2 oz of pureed food!! I was on my way to work - so I stopped and bought a small jar of #1 turkey w/turkey broth. The BEST food I've ever eaten (or at least it seems that way). I could not get the whole 2 oz down - I did finally have a feeling that was uncomfortable. So I am taking this as my "full" sign. I am really excited and look forward to my next appointment in 1 1/2 weeks. 
I'M READY

I found out late yesterday afternoon that my insurance will pay for the RNY plus a "band" that prevents the pouch from stretching. Has enyone had that additional step with their surgery? I am SOOOOOO excited to have this done. But I was not put on a liquid diet as so many people that I've read their profiles were. I'm not sure why I wasn't, and it worries me.
Nervous??

I am extremely nervous about the surgery. I worry about the pain, leakage, being out of work - everything. But I know this is for the best and I look forward to the days when I will not have to take 12-15 pills a day. Just being healthy is what I wish for - oh yeah, and smaller clothes too!
