I got that card too that says I am allowed. It's kinda neat! I took my bro out to Breakfast the other day and had like 2 bites of an all white omelette...' date='it didn't play nice but I was only 2.5 weeks out of surgery. Last night and this morning I had lobster tail....now THAT'S a breakfast of champions! Lol

Yah my dr said to watch out for eggs and milk...yuck!!!

I can completely agree that this is Allan emotional game..post op it took me about six months to realize I had a problem...everyone around me kept telling me how great I looked.. Going into surgery I was squeezing into a size 26...but six months later I was a 16...I could never see a difference..I finally decided one day I needed to start therapy.. I worked on my eating disorders as well as my self image problems.i know this is going to be a long process..it took me a long time to get to the point were I was..each day I tell myself that I have gone so far and I deserve to be happy... Ha I guess when you look at all the facts...especially the ones they grill into you before your surgery takes place such as 80 percent of the people that have a spouse or campanion that go through the surgery with you ends up failing.. That's why this surgery is so important for the self..because you need to really evaluate whether or not you can answer some of the hardest questions of your life...and maybe do it alone

Don't worry about the sagging skin, no matter what that will happen... I had my gastric march 2011 and in feb 2012 my dr approved my Tummy Tuck. With in a yr I lost over 160lbs...things will be fine

Me too now I have been told I have sinus tachycardia

Hey! Some things that helped me...keep walking...when u wake up, you will feel sore but the best thing you can do is just walk..

Drink your Protein drinks...don't stress about how much you lose...just weigh yourself weekly note very day...be careful w wine and milk.. And any other questions let me know..li was worried about the scars but I can't even see mine anymore.

Anyone post bypass and having heart problems?

I had it a year ago, life is completely different... Best of luck

Hello, I was 23 when I had my surgery. It's been a year now, and lost 170lbs!!!!
