What kind of surgery did you all have and how long has it been for you?

I had gastric bypass on Sept 12, 2011 DVD I am down 95 pounds. I feel great!

I just thought I'd see if anyone on here was close by me. I am in Smithfield Nc, about 40 min east of Raleigh.

I had roux en y on April 3rd of this year. as of Wednesday I have lost 22 lbs since the surgery. My starting weight was 220 and I currently weigh 198. I have been in the hospital the past few days due to severe dehydration. I had strictures in my stomach and esophagus....I had a dilation procedure yesterday to correct it and I should be going home today. I think my weigloss has slowed down because of my not being able to eat or drink. That's awesome abut your results! I can't wait to see results like that!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
