I had open bypass surgery and am taking 7 weeks off. Date of surgery was November 13

That looks great !!!!

Someone said to me that she couldn't believe I was having the surgery because its extremely dangerous. She is an RN and also very overweight so I figured she was either jealous or very uneducated about gastric bypass surgery

Hi everyone !! My surgery was November 13 th and I have lost 22 pounds. Starting weight was 263 current weight 241.

I am almost 4 weeks post op and love love love tomato juice ....

Hi vbgirl !! I had my bypass done. At Evangelical Hospital in Lewisburg PA !!!!

I had open gastric bypass on November 13. I am still on liquids and don't advance to soft purée till next week.

I guess I just felt that I needed something a little more filling than liquids..... It wasn't a good choice to make I suppose .

I am almost 3 weeks post op and thought I'd try some oatmeal........ About two hours later I had terrible diarrhea ..... I don't seems to get nauseous much.

I am currently in a size 20. Dream size is 12

Hi dmkar !!! I am from Jersey Shore pa!!! I had rny on nov13

I had a drain for a week post-op . I was more annoying than anything . Good luck tomorrow !!

I had my open gastric bypass surgery on November 13 too !!

My surgery was Nov 13. Surgery weight was 263 . Today's weight is 248. So 15 pounds in 10 days is pretty good !!!! I am happy !!!

Tylenol, preferably liquid but if not liquid then regular Tylenol !!!

I am post op day #3 . Still feeling tires and sore but better as each day passes . Just got my fitter shower and it was wonderful !!

I love this !!! Sooooo true though !!!

Thanks everyone !!! I am excited and nervous, but none the less, I am READY!!!

I am approved for November 13 Th !!!!!

I too was tested and positive for HPylori. My boss is a pharmacist and I spoke to him about it and the medications. He said testing positive was a good thing , that way you can be treated for the bacteria (H pylori) which is the bacterial that causes ulcers. So, in short, we will be treated for the bacteria and never have to worry about ulcers !!! YEAH !!
