I think everyone wants validation and want help with this journey.
I am unsure - I know I've spoken to him in the past but I really was joking!!
I can't be so serious this whole time -- it's a lot to learn all over again being revised than sleeved... It really wasn't a choice I wanted but I had too, I'm too young to suffer for another 30-40 years and would rather do it now, but ... with that said, and like I said above, I think everyone wants some help with this and some maybe, just maybe, are a bit touchy LOL
Maybe he needs to be validated

Always an expert. It was a little pizza snarky comment. I have been sleeved for 5 years I know the drill and now revised.

It was a damm JOKE. Sarcasm! Don’t claim to be an expert. This isn’t the first time you’ve come across in a snarky know it all way. I’ve seen it. Don’t act like you’ll never have/think of pizza or ice cream or a damm cookie. It’s life. You’re not an expert or you wouldn’t be here with us. This isn’t my first rodeo ... I was joking with someone who had a recipe I never heard of. I also meant that I can’t have ricotta. Why is that bad to prep myself before hand to a newer way of life moving forward from a sleeve.

Why do people continue to read his comments let alone react to them...

What does this actually mean?
I know with the sleeve, Snacks were “slider foods”. 
With the revision I’ve read dumping a lot. 
Is that bowel changes or vomitting? 
I would think diarrhea as you dont have a stomach like you did prior to the sleeve and the sleeve. 
I will have to research more. 
I would have to be out to dinner when the time comes and then have to run to the bathroom or be on vacation etc lol 

Ok like pizza hahahaha. I can’t have that yet.

I came home 3-4 lbs heavier hahaha gotta love it

What kind of diet are you doing
? Still all liquid or soft too!?
I have had an issue with Water my entire sleeve process. I hope this isn’t that bad. What foods do you find issues with? Does it pass right thru you? That’s what I’m worried about ... eating and then running to the toilet etc.
how does one take pills now. Does that get better.
I cannot do liquid meds. Makes me gag and I’m on lexapro liquid. Two nights not can’t do it. Had to cut my pills in 1/4 and do it that way for now.
I really need to set up Vitamin regime too.

Today has been a decent day. I have taken one pain pill and have eaten a few oz of split pea Soup blended and a few oz of Premier Protein and beef broth. I am just sore for the most part and wear the binder when sleeping.
Somebody needs to fill me in on this intestinal gas thing !!! Really the first time it hit it hurt so bad I wasn't sure if something was wrong. Had to get to the store for gas x after finding some talk about it. Is this the rest of my life? or is this just something in the beginning of the bypass?

Headache still. Sent my husband to find a sublingual Migraine medicine to see if that works Instead. I have to get my meds and Vitamins in order today. It’s not the belly pain eyc it’s this headache. Up and down all night long with it. Every 2 hours at least

Still here, sleeping a lot. They need me to drink and urinate but so tired to do either. Headache to kill a horse.
omg hope this gets better.
so nauseated..... I dont remember the sleeve this way. They want me to eat applesauce now, wish me luck! Haha

Thanks.
the umbilical area is horrendous pain.
Nothing considered.
I’m awake and very sore right now.had to drink and use the restroom.

Well here I am....
Waiting....

i'm being revised tomorrow and I'm a nervous wreck!!! Unsure why - been anxious for a few days.. I was so ready in March, then April, and here I am and nervous!

I think it's different when you have/had a bypass the first time around ...
Unsure why - but thats my opinion. Sleeve to Bypass, I would assume is the same thing - it's a bypass.

Umbilical? right ... I had a hiatal fixed/removed during the sleeve, or maybe It was removed w/ the stomach LOL
I don't remember, lol
I am unsure what time - waiting for the 'call' today - I had to get a rush COVID test yesterday - I was anxious about that as well but it's negative. I had a horrendous dream, id get to today and find out otherwise!! EEEK!!!
My husband had the virus back in early March - was exposed, no antibodies though - my daughter, 17, had a high antibody rate and NOT ONE symptom, so weird I tell you!
I'm hoping it's early morning - unsure how many surgeries they are doing tomorrow.. I know he had 2 available dates upcoming since they removed the ban on electives... I'm one of the first surgeries to go now with the hospital opening up - they made sure I was okay knowing there is a COVID floor - but I believe that they are going to be so cautious now and soooo extra clean with everything.. I just hope I don't have to wear a mask in my room, that'll stink!!! They are horrible to breath, esp with the fogginess of the reading glasses.
I'm sure bypass will be fine - have had surgeries before, and two c-sections and managed lol
The hernia is scaring me, as I Have to be extra careful they said about lifting this time...

Phew - hate these masks LMAO I'm sure I'm in a private room - unsure they'd put two patients together right now - we will see

yes, My husbands case was very mild. Hit him like a ton of bricks, dry cough, massive headache, just achy etc... lasted about 4 days maybe 5 - quarantined for 14. My son's friends father has it bad - been in hospital 46 days and wasn't on a vent but had pneumonia twice and is in ICU right now - going to rehab next. It does exist - unsure about the death numbers, but it's a real virus

OMY!!!!

yes, we will be pals
I was sleeved almost 5 years ago --- did well, gained back a little, but this isn't for weight loss - the GERD hit me last year and I'm on double PPI now and it's horrendous - I have a umbilical hernia, not related, maybe they claim, but thats being repaired too - so maybe thats why I'm worried. I did great with the sleeve the first time around - pain, etc... I'm just worried this is a double whammy, the bypass and hernia fix. I am not looking forward to it - nervous and anxious ... I know it'll be fine -- just the high of getting it all done .. I just want it over with if you know what I mean. I was so prepped in March, excited, now with all this COVID and being put on hold - I just let my guard down -- worry no one can visit ... it's just a lot going on in my head... anyways, I'll be okay!!
I'd love to lose another 40-50 lbs, but if this GERD goes away -- AWESOME!!! that's what I'm waiting for.
Water gives me heartburn... its constant all day .. I'm glad they cleared the way here in NY for electives.
I was on the emergency list, so I've waited only 2 weeks.. Today is clear liquid - horrendous!! LOL
