Scheduled for Gastric Bypass May 8th



Recommended Posts

My Dr. Scheduled me for May 8, but I haven't heard yet if my insurance approved it. I'm doing the " fast track" and have Coventry, hopefully all will go as planned. I'm nervous and excited!! Have my first support group meeting tomorrow, then next Monday I have an all day appt that includes the nutritionist, psychiatrist, a fit/ exercise person and someone else. I'm ready to lose 100 pounds, say goodbye to my CPAP machine and hopefully my hbp meds too !

Good luck on your surgery. Although I wasn't officially diagnosed with sleep apnea and didn't have a CPAP machine, there was a good chance that I had this condition. The specialist in this field that examined me thought I had this condition. My snoring kept my wife awake every night. That went on for several years. A couple weeks after surgery that stopped. Now I sleep so quiet, my wife wakes up and thinks I am dead, because she cannot hear me breathing. I also had high blood pressure. I took myself off all high blood pressure medicine around 3 weeks after surgery because my blood pressure was getting too low. I am 11 months post-op and these conditions have been in remission over that time.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
