Have you been doing anything exercise?

Your weight is basically the same as mine I had my RNY on December 29th I'm afraid I am having a stall right now. I'm 215 currently. I weighed 247 in my day of surgery. I feel awesome so I'm hoping even if i don't lose anymore I have helped my cholesterol level. I'm absolutely not regretting having the surgery. It was definitely worth it.

Sorry I haven't kept up. It has been a bit hectic. I had RNY on the 14th. Best thing I ever did. Starting weight was 279# 3 years ago. I was 231# at first Dr appointment, 211# day of surgery 221# day after. Lots of Fluid weight from IV'S. Today I am 190#. I had a 1 1/2 week stall at 194#. I go to Dr tomorrow for 6 week check. I have had several episodes of dumping. No fun. Still learning. I was Type II Diabetic, High cholesterol, High blood pressure and was on meds for all. 2 weeks post op I was off all meds. I feel so much better .

I've been sipping on sugar free green tea, I feel better now. 😊 I will definitely be more careful not to eat too fast from now on. That was harsh lol.

Maybe try some clear Protein waters or sugar free Gatorade? Don’t dehydrate! That would be awful!

I'm having the chest pain too, how long does it take to go away! I ate dinner too fast last night I'm assuming. I'm going to have to eat by myself for awhile, I feel bad when it seems like people are waiting on me to finish eating. I'm fine when I've eaten by myself. I'm so glad I got on here this morning and saw the posts, I thought I seriously hurt myself or something.

I’m not sure. It may be one of those things that lasts forever. My doctor said it was “negative reinforcement” for eating too fast. Guess I need to learn my lesson!

I think it's the fast. I have been DRINKING too much too fast and getting some pain in my chest/pouch area. So I am learning how to take it slow. Most of us who were obese IN THE PAST (we are shrinking now! yay!) were used to gulping our food down pretty quickly without chewing much. It's kind of a stress reaction because may fat people feel judged if they slowly eat and savor every bite of their food. We must learn new habits, and we can!

Hello everyone! I hope everyone is doing well! I'm amazed how good I feel, I did have a flare up of my Fibromyalgia this past Sunday I was feeling so good I forgot not to push myself. I'm feeling better now other than my arthritis. I go for my two weeks follow up this Thursday, I'm assuming my doctor will move me to the puree stage, I haven't had any issue with the shakes but I also have not experienced and hunger sensation. The smell of some food makes me want to have a bite, I was cooking bacon for my family and started crying, it was super weird but I was warned that may happen. Also good commercials advertising food bothers me a bit too. So far I've lost 20lbs since the day of my surgery.

It has been 3 weeks since my bypass surgery. I lost about 40 pounds since the date of my surgery. I find it weird that after 3 week I'm barely hungry. I sometimes eat 1-2 per day. Today I ate a small bowl of about 3-4 oz of oatmeal and I ate about 80% then at night I had some Soup. I would like to know from others if they are going through the same thing as i am? Those who had the surgery more than 3 weeks ago did your get hungrier each week or it just stayed the same.

Also I'm looking at what I want to eat, has anyone tried eating cauliflower rice or quinoa? which one should I eat and which one states better? Do you think I should be able to eat it even though it only been 3 weeks since my surgery?

I was able to have them right after surgery, it’s considered a liquid.

I went to a walkin clinic today because two of my incisions looked red around the outside and found out incisions were infected so now I'm taking antibiotics, other than that the pain isn't terrible, I've been walking quite a lot which is helping get the gas that is left from surgery. Hopefully everything continues to improve and I get my infection cleared up and don't have any kind of other complications, fingers crossed! Hope everyone has a Happy New Year! 🎉🎊🎉🎊

Told me as long as I'm under the use of the pain medication that I'm not drive

The gas pain is honestly the worse right. I had my TNT this morning. Hopefully everything will go as planned!

Got my sleeve yesterday. Had a rough night with a lot of pain and nausea. Not a lot of gas pains like I thought I’d have, but I am burping a lot. My nurse has been great with bringing me pain/nausea meds. How’s everyone else doing?

Thank you all so much! I'm on my way to the hospital now, pre op starts at 5:30am.

I'm having RNY surgery tomorrow too, please pray for me if you pray and of you don't pray send good vibes my way. I'm so scared something will go wrong...

Everything has gone GREAT for you! I foresee EXCELLENT results for you, Bidd! Fear is just False Evidence APPEARING Real. You are safe and well, surgery was a breeze and recovery is going excellent. And So It Is! <3 Let's be Surgery Buddies!

I will pray for you.

And I will send you good vibes! So many post from us RNYers so nervous the day before, then relieved the day after, then delighted as the struggles, and the weight, fall away.
