Hey there everyone. I had my gastric bypass today and it went well. No pain at the moment just some tenderness in the abdomen. My procedure was four hours. Going to ask tomorrow for the details. Nothing by mouth until tomorrow. I'm ready for the next part of my journey!

Your body is in ketosis. That is your body is using your fat stores for energy. The smell is a very common side effect. Bad breath, strong perspiration smells & other unpleasant bodily odours. If you google it you’ll find lots of information & ways to manage the odours but unfortunately no cures.
The smell is not good but you are losing weight - yay!

I won’t miss “losing” the remote and then finding it under me when I stand up.

Hold your nose while drinking it. It will reduce your ability to taste it. Then before you let go of your nose you take a swig of Water to clear the taste. Good luck.

I will not miss the itch and rash on my lower back and at the top of my butt from sweating and friction no matter how I try to prevent it!

They cancel surgery and treat you based on your severity. You need two subsequent negative Covid tests to proceed. I take zinc 50 mg , Vitamin C 500 Mg and vit d 10000 iU every day to increase immunity.

I had the bypass and it has been amazing for me

Wow, thanks for the information I will get my Vitamins today

I attended a party today and I had very strong impulses to eat some of the food being served. I did not cheat but I cried when the desert was served from such an intense feeling of frustration. I had brought a cooler with my shakes and sugar free Jello so I had something to fall back on. Once I said goodbye and got in the car I felt much better. I could have opted not to attend but I feel like I needed this challenge to prepare me for the road ahead. I felt a little embarrassed to cry over chocolate but I’ve been giving into every single impulse so long that the act of restraint caused me to cry. I have five more days to go until I have surgery. The next five should be a piece of cake considering I was able to get through the day. Thanks for reading.

Proud of you ❤

Good job resisting temptation! I did my best to avoid looking at food, even pictures of food, during my pre-op diet. Never realized how many e-mails Taco Bell sends until then (I didn't even eat at Taco Bell regularly, haven't been there in over a year, but once you give them your e-mail address, they don't stop).

Yeah! I Attended a party during pre-op too. It was so difficult but I felt empowered afterward! You did awesome, congrats

My diet is very similar to yours. I can have seven Premier Protein drinks a day, one popsicle, 2 sugar free Jello, 2 8 oz servings of broth. The I have like 40 calories left that I can spend on the above. No going over 1200 calories.

I will definitely not miss being treated like I am ignorant and that my ideas have no value.
I will not miss the crude comments or the farm yard animal sounds made when I walk by.
I will not miss the absolute disgust on people’s faces when I speak to them
I will not miss always hiding in the shadows
I will not miss being the biggest in the room, yet the most invisible
I will not miss the aches and pains that come with carrying so much extra weight
Most of all, I will not miss my boys being embarrassed by having such a fat mom!
