  5. Hey everyone I'm very new I just had my gastric bypass on dec 31st 2014. My emotions are all over the place and even though I wanted to get this undone I have decided to stick it out for my better. I didn't make it this far to quite now. Anyways it's been 5 days and all I have is some protein shakes and lots of water. I wanted to know what else I can have like borth,Popsicle,jello etc. I just need to know what's allowed your 1st week. Then on the 2nd also thanks in advance to all.
  6. Had surgery Dec 31st and I was in some pain but today woke up with less pain been walking a lot and drinking water. The surgeon said if I can handle drinking the shakes that I might be able to go home today fingers crossed. Any advice out there? What vitamins to take? How's the shakes after surgery??

Will I have to be like this forever. I started this journey weighing 410 I'm 347 now before surgery but I feel so down and lost. Any advice or ideas please let me know thanks
  8. I understand that the reason some surgeons request a liquid diet before surgery is so that your liver shrinks. The day of sugary do they run test on you to see if it shrunk?????

  14. My info was sent to the insurance company on sept 8th and I've been waiting. I decided to call today to see if I can get some info from the insurance company. They told me they're waiting for my case worker to send them 2 things that are missing and they need it before sept 16th by 12 noon. I called my case worker she said she got the info and to not worry that she will take care of it. I'm so scared to get denied and I hate the waiting game. Has everyone every experience this? How long do they usually take to approve?
