  1. I has GERD and did the bypass surgery instead. Bypass helps with reflux.
  2. So happy for you! Continue the good job
  3. For me was first the face, neck and arms and tights. Tummy was the last
  4. I had the same problem during our dinner with friends in Thanksgiving. I took my water with me. The people around me were so focus on eating their own food and talk that they didn't realize I ate only 4 grapes and tiny peace of turkey. I sat down at the table and I just talked with others and nobody asked me anything.
  5. Wishing you a fast recovery
  6. Sending you positive energy so you can recover quickly
  7. I weighted the morning before my surgery 194.70 and the day of my discharge I weighted 204.10
  8. Focus in positive outcomes. Don't watch or read negative post about the surgery. Do not overpack, you are not going to use mostly anything. Enjoy the ride
  9. Yay you are in the other side, congrats! Hope that you are feeling good and wish you happy holidays!
  10. My doctor said for life
  11. Take it to the WLS support group in your area. They usually pass on different sizes of clothes
  12. So sorry to hear that; please contact your primary doctor to do some labs to check on you. After my bypass I was myself again after the 5th day.
  13. I took two weeks, but not heavy lifting. All depend on your activity work. After 5 days I felt great to work but wait one more week to rest.
  14. Remember every dr has their own protocol so check with your surgeon and his staff. Check Dr.Matthew Wiener on YouTube search on Eating After Bariatric Surgery
  15. Depending on your insurance, hospital and your dr protocols. It changes from patient to patient. Talk to your surgeon
  16. Too long you should be more regularly. Ask your dr. I had the same problem and they prescribed me suppositories, milk of magnesium and stool softener pills.
  17. Yes at the beginning without the peel
  18. Check with your primary doctor so he can do some blood test. Probably you are anemic you are not absorbing all the nutrients.
  19. Glad that you have a positive attitude and continue your journey.
