Hi Everyone! I just had my gastric bypass yesterday April 15,2013 and feeling great. Kinda sore here and there but nothing I cant handle. What I was wondering how much weight did you all lose in two weeks post op? Please share your stories would love to hear them and how you handled everything! My Hw-270 SW- 258 And Goal Weight 170

Thank you! That is what I'm doing....it does help

Good Luck...I just had mine yesterday! Very sore but I know it is all so worth it!!

Good luck! We are going in at the same time! Hope recovery is speedy for you

Thanks and you too! And see you on the losing side

Good Luck girl! You will do great

Same here...when is your surgery? Mine is Tomorrow morning 9:00

Got my Blood work done today my Surgery time is schedule and I am so ready for Monday! Life Changing and so ready for it.

I've been on the pre op liquid diet for a week today and have lost about 8lbs, haven't really cheated made homemade chicken broth and had a 4oz chicken breast with it. I eat that every other day for either lunch or dinner and still losing the lbs.

Hey Ladies I'm on April 15th as well, very over whelmed and excited. Been on a liquid pre op diet for two weeks and that has been a roller coaster ride of emotions. I'm here for support and also would love to get it and keep up with everyone that is going through the same thing as me!

I'm starting my second week of my pre Op liquid diet and I have been nauseous! Even the sight of food makes me sick. I try and drink water but its still there and even when I have a shake! Help somebody...Anybody

Oh and I was guessing it is going to be a hassle, and I know my mom got my back if I need her LOL but praying that it starts after surgery.

That does...I already know I will gain and thats understandable I guess its back to mind over matter and staying on track with eating right and all that! Thank you

Hey Ladies HUGE question...I know this is personal and tmi but I was wondering if its bad having your aunt flow start during surgery? Because my Surgery in a week from Monday, April 15th and that is the day Aunt Flow is suppose to arrive and I'm thinking how embarrassing its going to be if I am.

Lucky you...its pretty tough being on a all liquid diet when your stoamch isn't smaller....but at the end Its going to be so worth it!

That's great, I need to get on the broth so I can change it up I'm getting really sick of the protein shakes. I have not been a happy camper with not being able to eat solid foods. Im just glad my husband isn't here to witness it, but my poor parents are with me and supporting me and my dad is coaching me through everything because he had his gastric bypass 4 years ago and has maintained his weight (Very proud of him). But I am going to keep up with the 3 shakes a day and maybe a broth as substitute for dinner or lunch. thanks so much ladies

How many shakes are you all drinking a day? I have been drinking three a day but yet still going to bed hungry? Should I be drinking more?

Hey Everyone quick question...during the liquid diet pre op how many shakes do you have a day? Today I had four and I'm not sure if that's too less or too much?

What about her weight, did she gain a lot and has she lost the lbs? This is something that I am stressing about, because after my husband gets back from being deployed and I am 18 months post op we want to try and have a baby, but I am scared that I will gain the weight back.
