Hey all feeling sore and sometimes nauseous but otherwise ok. I only had to stay one night at the hospital. According to the surgeon everything went smoothly. The only big issue I have been having is urinating but it seems to be getting better with time. Thanks for all the well wishes, it really helps brighten my day!

My surgery is 4/5/16 and I am beyond excited. Got the call from the nurse today to confirm details and get my arrival time. Due to a hand injury I am working half days until my surgery so that only gives me 20 work hours to go. Any support now would be wonderful. Tips and tricks, things to avoid or things you found worked well are all welcome. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Preparing for gastric bypass surgery
dnpatrick9 replied to ronitownsend's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hello! I found by cutting down on sugar, eliminating pop, and watching my portions I dropped 35 lbs. before my surgery. I am going in 4/5/16 and I am beyond excited. Good luck in your process! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

4/5! So excited due to my BMI being under 50 I only have to do a 2 day liquid diet before surgery; however, I followed my wife's two week high Protein, low calorie diet before her surgery and I have dropped about 35 lbs. since Dec. 2015. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Yay! So happy for you. I will be joining you soon in just a couple short but very long weeks lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Looking for any April surgeries

April 5th! I am beyond excited. Wishing everyone success for their surgery and a great journey as we all work on our bodies Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I think it depends on the person. My wife had her RNY in January of this year and she can't tolerate it; however, as you can see in the comments, many are fine with it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Fear of eating out and dumping
dnpatrick9 replied to Thecloude1's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
The great news is with certain websites and apps you can find out what meals consist of and their daily values which can help you decide if a meal out will fit the perimeters. Or if you worry and it is a restaurant that does on the go, you could order and try at home that way if dumping does occur you would at least be at home to deal with it. My wife is worried as well but always tries to try new things at home to help lessen the fear. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I have a feeling I will be in the same boat. Congrats on hitting your goal. I wish you well as you continue your journey. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

calling all april 2016 bypass patients
dnpatrick9 replied to newmebithebypass's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am scheduled for 4/5 and I am beyond excited. I started and then had to stop the process two years ago due to some other medical issues but was able to get back in the beginning of the year to get it all taken care of. My wife had the surgery in January this year and it has helped me prepare for the surgery mentally and physically. We live in Michigan, so we are excited to drop weight and do some camping this summer! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
