Wiping my own butt without breaking my back trying to reach 🤦🏼‍♀️

When you have a distal bypass more of the intestine is bypassed than a Proximal Gastric Bypass. If more of the intestine is bypassed then more weight is lost through the process of malabsorption. So it's kind of in-between a proximal bypass and duodenal switch.

it's actually spelled "distal". I believe it bypasses more of the small intestine than the standard bypass does, giving you more malabsorption.

This is what my surgeon is recommending for me to do has anyone had it and what exactly is it I have not been able to find much information about it

So I’m proud to say Sunday will wrap up 3 weeks and I have not cheated mentally I’ve had good days and bad days the bad days I had I was on my period and I was just a mess I’m a special case normally pre op liquid diet is 2 weeks I am contemplating eating actual food Sunday then jumping back on but idk if I’ll actually do it

So sorry for your pain and I’m glad to see you are getting better did they tell u why you had blockage was it a side effect of the surgery or was it something different

I’m going in for my band to bypass revision on the 26th I can’t wait

I’m having surgery the same day currently on week 3 of my 6 week pre op liquid diet

I’m going in for my band to bypass revision on the 26th I can’t wait

Let me tell you’d I just finished 2 weeks and goodness I feel like I have been to war yes I know that’s dramatic to say but it has been such a mental battle especially knowing that I’m on a 6 week liquid diet the last 4 days have been extra hard aunt flow came to town and good god all I wanted was food and to nap all day and I couldn’t do either one of those things and no one else in my life understands my struggle so I guess I’m just here to vent and to tell anyone else that it’s not easy but you can do this just take it day by day

Side note
I chose Premier Protein as my shake and I drink 5 a day I find that Cookies and cream and chocolate are horrible and the caramel and chocolate Peanut Butter are really good I also do half vanilla with half caffe latte that’s also really good bananas and cream is decent strawberries and cream is ok and peaches and cream is meh I just ordered cinnamon roll I hope that one tastes good

I’m on the 26th as well good luck

Hi. Had a useless band removed in august 2020 and the sleeve done nov 9. Best decision ever! I had my band at least 12 years and was the same size beginning and end. And like you choke on Water. I would only consider the sleeve but I was 40 BMI and 230 lbs. not sure about you or if that makes a difference in the type of surgery.
