I'm 55 and had bypass January 11 not all has been roses but it's the best thing I've ever done for myself. I'll be glad to tell you anything you want to know. Good luck on your journey!

I'm jealous! You have great shape. It's been so long since I've had a shape I'm sort of scared to see what I'll look like.

Hi there. I'm having the same problem. Would love to see what some of the oldies but goodies would advise!

I would love to hear from others who are about 3 weeks out. Indeed support getting my fluids in. I have started being plagued with nausea even with Just water. Need advice please !

What an inspiration! You look great!

Dr Bruce Long was my surgeon. I had my first post op yesterday. Lost 14 pounds since surgery. Have had no problems other than learning to slow down when I eat. The whole department at Carilion Clinic was great to me. Good luck with whatever choice you make.

So surgery was one week one day ago! What a difference a week can make. Came home after 3 days. I've had no real pain. Felt uncomfortable but that's about it. Still trying to get my energy back but this has been one of the best decisions of my entire life. It's going slow getting all my protein in with vitamins but this is a new way of life for. I will persevere!

I had my surgery Monday as well and all had the hernia repair just like you I get short of breath but I must say I've had no pain. I walk a lot though in my house and I think this really helped me. Good luck!

I'm 55 and having surgery tomorrow bypass at 9am. I'm very excited to start the next chapter of my life!

Surgery tomorrow 9am. Very excited!

Wow what an inspiration you are. You look great! Congratulations !

Wow you are already a warrior! I have surgery scheduled for January 11 so I will be right with you. I'm sure you will-do well with the surgery. I'm scared and happy. We got this! The best of luck to you!

My surgery date is January 11! I'm so excited !

My surgery date is Jan 11. Virginia. So excited!
