I just had bypass on the 27 th and like you this was my first major surgery. My advice would to be distract yourself the day before. The straight liquid was tough on me. The surgery was much simpler than I expected and the pain was minimal. A good support system is extremely helpful too. Good Luck!

Oh the nerves! Just keep doing your thing as usual. Try drinking chamomile tea, I got really nervous at the hospital when they called me for the surgery. I was trembling but immediately I got the anesthesia so I don't remember anything else. Good luck!

      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! 😞
