    2 months post op. Still having difficulty drinking my 64oz of water. Any suggestions? Does it get easier?

    Hair Loss!

    I’m 3 months post surgery and the hair shedding is crazy. I have thick hair so that’s helping me hide it. Getting it trimmed next week should also help. Just hope it stops soon.

    Hospital Stay

    I was in the hospital for 3 nights. No visitors (due to Covid) but I felt awful so kinda glad I didn’t get company.

  5. My insurance never approved me. I had to take money out of my retirement but to me it was worth it.

    Discouragement

    I had surgery June 4. I told some family and close friends about my decision. I haven’t told many others. They just see me losing weight. Surround yourself with people who support you. You know what is best for your body.

    Recent RNY - How ya doing?

    I had RNY on June 4 and I’m feeling pretty good. I still have some pain because I was cut deeper than usual due to a previous surgery in the same area. I am down 41 pounds. And am just taking it one day at a time.

    5 years post op and have huge REGRET!

    I had the fundiplocation surgery in 2006. I had gastric bypass surgery in June. The surgeon chose bypass over the sleeve because of the previous surgery. I hope you’re feeling better soon.

    What was your early weight loss like?

    Im 2 months out also. I weigh in weekly. The first month I lost 4-5 pounds a week. Now averaging 2-3 a week.
  11. I was one of the people that needed longer to heal after bypass surgery. I was absolutely miserable and the pain on my left side where I was cut shill hurts today. When I asked the doctor about it he said the famous line that everyone heals differently. Best of luck to you.

    Glad I’m not alone. I guess we just have to just keep trying.
