I just had the bypass on 9/18 and I’m glad I did. The weight loss is steady but still takes effort. I don’t think the sleeve would have been enough for me.
-
I looked at your history. You have an EGD scheduled? That’s good.

I never threw up pre surgery except when my lap band was filled. This recent episode started with the foamies and then a little nausea and the food just came up.

Hi Frustr8, I’m doing much better. Got through that rough patch. Just a little pain still from my incisions and threw up once from eating too fast. In the puréed stage. Thanks for checking on me!

Hi I’m 8 days post op gastric bypass and I still feel miserable. The pain is a lot better but I feel nauseous and don’t want to eat. I hope this nausea doesn’t last forever. When does it go away?

Best wished to everyone. Surgery went fine., a little longer than expected due to scar tissue. Going home tomorrow!
-
Hi my surgery is tomorrow (band to bypass) and I’m scared! Could benefit from some encouragement and prayer!
-
I’m not having the sleeve but I know someone who did. They lost ALL their weight but it was slow. Took a couple of years I think.

Thank you to everyone who has prayed for me in this site. God answers prayer and you are doing the Lords work by praying for others and encouraging them.

Hi the preacher, please put me on your prayer list for my band to bypass revision on September 18. I’m embarrassed to say that I’m really scared. People ask me why I’m afraid if I believe God is with me and I can’t answer that. I know God loves me and has a plan for my life but does that mean nothing can go wrong? What am I missing?

Hi The Preacher, I am a woman of faith and I would love it if you prayed for me. I’m having a revision from the lap band to the gastric bypass on September 18. Please pray that it all goes well!!! Thank you!!

I’m having a band to bypass revision on September 18. Had this awful band for 10 years.
