| HI from future loser!
Hi! My name is Janie and I'm in the process of completing my 6 month medically supervised diet (which I have not done well at) and hopefully to submit my paperwork to insurance by the end of January. I am looking forward to meeting you all and learning as much as I can about having the RNY. I'm trying to learn a lot about it before surgery so there are very few surprises afterwards!

Hi. Welcome. Don't feel too bad about having trouble on your diet. Just try the best you can. If any of us did well at medically supervised diets, none of us would have needed to have WLS. I had been on diets since the 2nd grade.
You are in a great place for questions and support. Glad that you found us.

| Welcome!!! Hi! I'm so glad you found this site and joined it! It really and truly keeps me sane. I hope it does the same for you! 
It seems like I was just going through my 6 months of nutrition counseling ect. before I could have my surgery. To me it felt like the surgery date would never get here, and even a month away I was sure it wouldn't happen! Now I'm 8 months out and feeling soooooo wonderful compared to last year at this time. I pray all goes smoothly for you. Will look forward to seeing your posts! Take care. |
