Give yourself some credit and pat yourself on the back for making the decision to get healthier.
I think that it would be good to give your self grace. Be kind. Your body is not just going through a shock it's an entire way of life that you are changing. So make an effort to stay positive and optimism is key. food intake should follow the dieticians recommended foods.
You will loose weight. And to keep it off follow the plan like your life depends on it.
Hang in there. And perhaps Journal your feelings and track your food.
All the best,

Water bottles help me. I count the number I need for the day and out them on them on the counter. Then in the lunch box. I notice I can drink tea without sugar so use a bottle for a tea bag. Like the other person said those big cups fill them up. Put a water app or timer on your phone. I have to eat less to drink but you need the water.
Does your doctor have a dieticians? If not see one.
I added what the dietician gave me this week. Hope it helps. Hang in there

Hi all. Looking for anyone who went from sleeve to bypass for GERD but also to lose weight too.

I had sleeve in 2017. Just converted to RNY on 9/29 due to gerd. I was at my goal weight still from sleeve but have room to lose 30 lbs. my surgeon said I prob would but it would be a lot slower then first round and will take a little more work. Not just my diet (i was already pretty much sticking to Protein diet except occasionally).

Thanks for the encouragement.. it’s hard but I’m giving it my all. I’ve lost 8 lbs since starting the nutritional visits. He doesn’t issues with insurance either. All looks good.

I’ll keep updating this thread [emoji5]


Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter weekend

Thanks,

Everything went well, no ulcers or cancer tumors whatever else they were looking for. He did take three biopsies to send out for H-pylori (I’m hoping it come back negative) he said if it does I’d have to do antibiotics before he can actually give a surgery date. But for now he just wants me to concentrate on diet/ healthy changes, and he’ll have the office call patients about follow up appointments.

No regrets it's a blessing that you have to work on maintaining.

Hope that all goes well. I had an upper endoscopy and it didn't show the GERD but I know that it's there. I chew gum after meals and take omperazole when I get really bad. Suggestion: Eat light with no grease and nothing fatty. Hang in there

Protein and veggies... decrease any junk food and limit bread, rice, pasta

How did you get obese? Whatever you did before has to be a lifestyle change so your weight loss will be long term. Note: if eating fast-food made you fat don't eat it after surgery or same thing will happen
