Ok so I Had Gastric Bypass on Monday Sept 24, 2018. The Surgeon said everything went well and that I should be going home the next day. The next day came and by abdomen was so distended I could hardly breath. I was up walking doing everything thing I was suppose to but it was literally the worst feeling ever. My abdomen was as hard as a rock. They kept me an extra day because the bloating was putting me in some pretty intense pain. I felt like I was 10 months pregnant. I guess it was because my intestines had not woken up yet from the anesthesia, to start the process of eliminating all the gas they pumped into me during surgery.
However here I sit at home Sept 27 2018 finally released still feeling full but defiantly not as bad as the previous 3 days.
So I guess my question is. I have had nothing but water and watered down juice for my 3 days in the hospital. How it that I went up almost 5 lbs. Does anybody have any idea Why?
Thanks Faith

At 1.5 years post-op I'm currently going back and forth between 194 and 199. I would still like to lose 25 more pounds.
In hindsight, I should have gotten the bypass. I fight with the fat person in my brain Every. Damn. Day! I am strongly considering a revision for reflux and to make eating sweets a punishment.
I still feel fat, I still hate myself. People are nicer, men touch me 😳 platonically of course, but it still weirds me out. I don't do chips, bread or fries. I do eat ww toast and a taco shell on occasion.
I still have restriction. The bad foods are the slippery ones... but, when you put your mind to it you can eat very little and feel satisfied.
I would do it again in a heartbeat. 💖

Thank you for the update. I'm still on the medication at 9 months out but I find I can go a day in between without it now. My dr thinks I may be able to come off it totally after 2 years post op. It doesn't bother me much being on the meds and he says there is no long term issues with it.
I should have reached out to you sooner. You seemed unhappy last time I messaged you. I wish you felt more positive about where you are. Are you talking to a professional? You've come so far and have done so well that I wonder if you got to your goal weight you would still have concerns.
I would also like to lose 20 or so more pounds and I plan to push to get there but if it crawls back up after I won't let it get to me. I'm 2 weeks away from a breast reduction so I'm going to step up the meal replacement protein shakes and really watch my carbs. Dieting is such a mind game though, every time I try to make a push for weight loss it seems to backfire and I have cravings and eat worse.
Would you consider doing more protein shakes for meals? At least for a bit to jump start weightloss again?

Brain dump and rambling...Here I am 7.5 weeks post op and I am stuck at the same 25lb weight loss that I have had for the last 3.5 weeks. I am feeling down, dejected and frustrated with lack of movement on the scale. I am able to get into a lot of clothes and shoes that were troublesome before so I have had some non-weight related wins, but I am ready to scream about the lack of weight loss. I have upped my calories, lowered my calories, increased my exercising and I am hitting all my numbers for protein. I am still having issues with bathroom visits and vitamins making me feel sick to my stomach. On another note, nothing I eat makes me feel sick other than the aforementioned vitamins, no nausea at all from any foods. I seriously keep asking if I even had the surgery completed because I feel the same. I feel hungry and I FEEL THE SAME as before surgery. I am afraid I am going to be stuck here at 245lbs and not make any more progress. Did I choose the wrong surgery? Should I have done bypass instead of sleeve? Time will tell. Sigh - not a good day for me.

Random thoughts: Fall is my favorite season and it's almost here. I love taking my kids to the pumpkin patch. I am almost at my 3 year surgiversary and about to have revision surgery. Excite but apprehensive.

At the moment I am at the lowest I have been. Fed up of being told that I'm getting a revision and then they dont deliver. Cost comes into it on the NHS. Thats why I'm looking further afield. If you know of anywhere decent let mknow? The condition has made me push my friends away

I recently watched an episode of Wendy Williams, she had Al Rocker on who had Gastric Bypass. he said he has to take over 17 vitamins for the rest of his life. I honestly dont understand where he came from with that number I take 3 caltrates a day 1 prenatal daily, 1 biotin daily 1 B12 weekly and 1 iorn pill nightly . Does anyone know where he got that number from? 17 vitamin pills a day I'm confused??????
