2 weeks to countdown to surgery

By Julz074

· 588 views

It's 2 weeks until I have my surgery, and feeling excited and nervous all in one...I know this will be life changing, and am ready to take the challenge on, but don't fool myself...this is gonna be a challenge!! I've been very selective to whom I tell what im doing, although, I know they will see the difference soon....guess the stigmatisn of gastric surgery to some people is the easy way out...but we all know better...learning my diet, and the road I have ahead of me is by far the most challenging diet I will ever face...a life time challenge if I want success...and failure for me is not an option...my health is counting on it. So, if anyone has any tips, good websites, or food preferences that they like I would appreciate any help. Julz

    Gastric Bypass Patients

    Hey everyone....Sorry it's taken me so long to get back here...I am approx. 5 weeks post gastric surgery now, and feeling great!!!...I had a good experience from surgery until now...surprised I haven't had many problems, with the exception of getting more motivated to boost up my exercise program. Ive lost approx. 24 lbs since july 18 surgery, and it feels so good to be finally getting into smaller clothes... such a great confidence boost. Question: anyone have any good resources for vitamins? looking for the sugar free that I can actually stomach the taste. thanks for any help.... Julz
