    I'm 8 weeks Post-Op Gastric Bypass... it was a struggle at first. Day 1 of surgery my doctor didn't staple my pouch all and left a quater sized hole, leaving me to bleed and throw up blood every hour on the hour. Day 2 go back under to fix problem. Day 6 released from hospital... don't remeber anything until after 3 weeks of surgey. So much pain, so much hate for what I did to myself. I wanted to end life... Week 5 horrible pain in the upper abdomen, trip to the er, ABSCESS, infection from blood left by the doctor on outside of the pouch. Day 1 drainage surgery, bag stunk so bad! Ugly green color it was horrible. . Day 7 drainage bag removed, released from hospital, no more infection... Week 8 solid foods... nothing solid stays down. I don't know anyone who has gastric bypass that I can turn to for help or to talk about stuff with, its hard I feel so alone because my parents (I'm 29yrs old) they dont understand what's going on or what I'm going through... which is why I became a member here.

    I'm 8weeks out which puts me on solid foods.... my doctor and nutritionist didn't put me on any extended restrictions, but soft foods and purred foods are what settles in ny stomach, every time I sold foods I get sick and it all just comes up.. It's hard but I'm trying.

    there's not really any support groups... I found one at the hospital I got my surgery at but they only meet once a month. Thank you so much, I thank you for all the support
