Just wanted to share how really happy I am that I made the decision to get RNY.. My out look on life is so much happier I am about to turn 40 next month and it the happiest I have been in years... Can't wait to post my OTTD pic, and my bday pics cause I have been working really hard and I plan on looking GOOOOOOD.

Hello its been 6 months and my acid reflux has improved greatly, I have not had an episode in over 2 months but I do still take one PPI daily. I was told by my surgeon that after this month I should be able to discontinue my PPI.

Yes I have eaten gummies, as an alternative to drinking and it was a great. No side effects and my stomach was fine

Don't play with me..... cause a bitxh is in a size 10 jeans........ ( insert happy dance)

Sept 4th was my surgery date my starting weight was 235 and now I am 188 it's amazing to see the weight come off, I can basically eat anything but still maintain a very low carb diet.

Update time....... New weight alert Sw: 235 Cw: 186 [emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847][emoji847]

It's just all seems unbelievable to me, I just don't even know how to act. I want to embrace the new thinner me, but then I say stuff like hold on girl don't celebrate too early. f**k it I'm happy and I can't keep it in anymore...... " happy dancing [emoji126] "

Hello, I feel your pain and yes I had RNY Sept 4th and was in terrible pain after surgery, but the good news it will get better. I promise you if you can keep it together for the next 30 days you will feel 100% better. Goodluck dear.

Woke up this morning and decided to step on the scale....IDK WHY, but guess what I saw 198........ I can't even believe that I have lost 37lbs in 3 month post opp. This is an amazing feeling.

Ok so I am over 30 days post opp RNY, and down to 210. I feel really good about the weight loss so far, I am able to eat almost anything I want of course I don't. I include exercise everyday because I really want to increase my weight loss b4 the holidays, just to give myself a little cousin incase it gets tough. SW: 235 CURRENTLY: 210 GOAL: 170-160 B4 MY 40TH BIRTHDAY IN APRIL.

Hello I am 1 month out and have lost about 20lbe I'm very happy and like you wish it was more but am happy so far, I started to add exercise and hopefully that will jult my weight loss a little more. Sw: 235lbs CW: 214

Hang in there girl the days after surgery are the absolute worst, But i am here to tell you that it will get better and easier. Don't rush just get thru one day at a time. I'm 30+ days out and I feel your pain.

I just had surgery alone due to covid on sept 4th, and like you i was very scared by after surgery I felt so terrible I was kinda glad to be alone and just be still and quiet. I just took everything 1 day at a time. TODAY 30 days later I feel amazing. Good luck to you dear.

Hello its been 30 days since RNY surgery and I still have issues with acid reflux, it really messes up my day and throws my whole eating and drinking schedule off anyone eles have problem with acid.

So I have lost 12lbs since surgery 9/04/2020 and Iam very happy I just wanted to see what the average amount is with other people that have gastric Bypass.

9 days post opp, my 1st appointment with my surgeon is tomorrow morning hopefully they will move me right on into puree stage. All my insisions are doing great and no longer hurt. It's really hard to get this water in sipping and sippin, I really want to just take a big ole gulp.

Seriously if I were you I would gather all my documents and find another surgeon, before you approval and the things you have completed not are not valid, in some stated I know Maryland things need to be within 30-60 day and you have already done to much to have to wait on a Doctors office thats not working in you favor there are plenty of WLS out there . After I submitted to the insurance and got an approval I was scheduled for surgery less then 48 hr later and here I am 8 days post opp. Keep your head, but be vigilant its your health and life.

How long since you had surgery? I am only 7 days and been feeling weak and dizzy on this liquid diet.

7 days and still on liquids, let me tell you it ain't fun at all. The pain from surgery is almost gone but the idea of continuing to drink liquids all day is really taking a toll on me idk, I feel no energy and sometimes get dizzy. Its mental strength that I need i am driving myself crazy, but I know this too shall pass.

To be honest that 2 day in the hospital is just a guess, the pain i experienced was immense and I needed all the time they would give me in the hospital just to get me my mind and body together. I still don't have any regrets but I don't wanna fool anyone into thinking this was a cake walk. It was hard as hell and still is but hopefully as the days pass it will get easier. Good luck with your surgery.

No I didn't have any complications, I did however have a drain that they needed to be removed before I could be released, other than that I was not nauseous or sick. I am still on a full liquid diet which is proving to be pretty hard i dont know what eles I can eat besided broth for breakfast/lunch & dinner.

OK day 3 the pain is getting better but you have to stay up all your pain medication most of the gas is gone but I'm still in the hospital which sucks I have not eaten anything in 3 days I have however been drinking my water and clear ensure, I felt them a ball of emotions right now I'm happy and I'm sad I'm just everything

When I tell you I have so Many mixed feelings It would be an understatement, So happy and grateful to have finally had my surgery But post op is not a joke there are a lot of hurdles you have to going over and I'm taking it slow drinking water walking and pain management are some of the few things I hope soon all I'm gonna remember is good stuff because right now it's really hard.

Ok, so 1 day post opp and let me just be honest day 1 was very rough the pain and the gas was enough to have me calling on the lord.... but its been a little over 24 hr and I kinda feel 1/2 way ok..... still have not had anything to drink yet but I have been walking. One thing 4 sure I am making sure they stay on top of my pain meds every 2 hr.

Yes, do what you have to do YOLO, I will be having surgery in 2 days and he still acting kinda funny but, idgaf I'm happy for myself and my kids are my biggest cheerleaders. I made a commitment to myself this year and with the grace if God I will see this thru. Good luck to you dear I hope it all works well for you
