I’m 9 weeks out and I find I have to keep a substantial variety in my diet. Foods will be ok one day and make me vomit the next. The only thing that’s consistent is fluids.

Ok, see? This is why I need reading comprehension lessons. I read this title as "Dumping. Masturbation. After Bypass Surgery." And I was like, finally! Now this is gonna be a fun one in the General Discussion Area!

Hi all! Tomorrow I will receive my surgery date. I’m excited and nervous all at once. I feel prepared in terms of knowledge - but I still have several people who love me very much expressing major concern regarding my decision to do gastric bypass surgery. As we all know, this is our decision – but hearing others who think I’m making a huge mistake – it kind of gets into my head a bit. I’m so glad I found this forum. My new peeps! I will need you greatly as I get ready for surgery!!!

I would think short term. Take whatever you have to take to get through this period and then you can evaluate. If the pain meds help, do it to get over the hurdle. Hang in there!

Thanks for sharing! That does seem like a good alternative for people.

Fingers crossed you don't have compartment syndrome.. Let us know how it turns out..

Gorgeous. Congratulations.

I found this ground flaxseed at Walmart ($5) it has 3G of protien for two tablespoons. If you add this to each shake and all of your foods (eggs, chicken, broth, etc) you can take in an extra 3G per meal!!!

I am in middle management in a big law firm. My people are spread across nine cities, so I travel a lot. My surgeon says I will be out for one week. Although I have a lot of discretion when it comes to being out or working remotely, I don’t want to get behind. My days are long enough as it is. I lucked up. My surgery is scheduled for 11/17. We are closed two days the following week for Thanksgiving, so I get ten days, which should be enough.
