This is it

This is actually it in about 12 hours....but I'm pretty sure I won't have time to blog in the morning ....leaving the house at about 5:30 am.

After the first 2 days, the liquids were surprisingly easy.....I'm really hoping the next 2 weeks of post op liquids go as well. I am feeling pretty anxious....I hope I can sleep. After the thinking, researching, planning and preparing I feel like I'm ready....so when I wake up...this will be it. I will have a good report on the other side.....and something to blog about.

RNY Gastric By Pass

Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a type of weight-loss surgery that reduces the size of your stomach to a small pouch – about the size of an egg. It does this by stapling off a section of it. This reduces the amount of food you can take in at meals. The surgeon then attaches this pouch directly to the small intestine, bypassing most of the rest of the stomach and the upper part of the small intestine. This reduces the amount of fat and calories you absorb from the foods you are able to eat for even more weight loss.
