I had many times after surgery when I had to go out to eat with my husband. I always made sure that I had some crochet project along or my kindle. It wasn't easy, but I felt somewhat empowered after getting through it. I'm 2 months out now, so I can now try eating a salad or some other healthy dish. Keep trying, it gets easier!

Has anyone tried broccoli in the regular phase of diet after Gastric Bypass? I had a lot of trouble for 2 days after.

Dr. Braverman and Dr. Quebbemann are doing my gastric bypass tomorrow. I feel totally confident with both surgeons. I know that I'm in good hands. Can't wait to get thru the surgery. -
July 7th Bypassers ?

I'm going on July 14th. Just started the liquid pre-op diet 3 days now. It's not that bad - I feel like I'm drinking all the time! I haven't been terribly hungry either. Tonight I even went to Claim Jumper with my husband and watched him eat while I sipped iced tea. I feel so empowered!!! Good luck all July surgery pals!!! -
2 week liquid diet
susanholstein@att.net replied to julez's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I started my liquid diet today. It wasn't bad....except I developed a bad headache this afternoon. I checked my blood sugar and it was fine. Took a couple of Tylenol and took a nap. Felt much better when I woke up. Hope you do well!!! -

I've had low potassium for many years. I take a prescription called Klor-Con twice a day. -
July 15 surgery date
susanholstein@att.net replied to kaschank's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm having mine in Orange County Calif. Just had the last of my tests today - cardiac ultrasound. Next week I do the last appt before surgery with the surgeon, the internist, and the nutritionist. I can't believe the amount of testing they do beforehand. I think they have done an ultrasound of everything on my body! -

I hope your surgery goes well. My date is July 14. I'm starting to get a little nervous about complications, etc.
