  1. ...although, I've heard from a few people that had had RNY, that they never experienced full dumping syndrom, They did say there were milder side effects after eating, like discomfurt, abdominal pain, and maybe a little vomitting. I also realize everybody is different, but I was hoping to get a sense for what types of food that you used to love just aren't working out for you right no. And also, what foods that you loved before, are you able to enjoy again, but are surprised they didn't give you any problems.
  2. Thanks everybody! This is great to know.
  3. Glad I found you. It's nice to be here! I'm having gastric bypass surgery on July 13. I wanted to know how everyone's experience has been going. Lots of helpful information to be found here. My peak weight was 338 in April 2014. I started my 6-month PCP supervised diet in December 2014, when I weighed 326. At the end of the diet in June 2015, I weighed 265, so I've lost around 70 since my peak. I'm halfway through the 2-week liquid diet, and it's as miserable as everyone says it is, so I'm glad that we're all in agreement on that. The first two days were the worst, and I almost quit. I didn't quit, and now the diet sucks less. Still not great, but the Bariatric Advantage shakes seem to do the trick. Also I get one BA bar per day, and all the sugar free Jello and sugar free Popsicles I can stand. Yay jello! Thanks! Good luck to you all!

    Looking for early July buddy!

    Hi, I have a July 13 operation date too. Some quick background on me just for context. I'm a 42 year-old male living in AZ. My peak weight was 338 in April 2014. I started my 6-month PCP supervised diet in December 2014, when I weighed 326. At the end of the diet in June 2015, I weighed 265, so I've lost around 70 since my peak. I'm halfway through the 2-week liquid diet, and it's as miserable as everyone says it is, so I'm glad that we're all in agreement on that. The first two days were the worst, and I almost quit. I didn't quit, and now the diet sucks less. Still not great, but the Bariatric Advantage shakes seem to do the trick. Also I get one BA bar per day, and all the sugar free jello and sugar free Popsicles I can stand. Yay jello! Good luck to you all! Go July!
