Hello everyone. I'm on month 5 and have lost 70lbs!



Recommended Posts

Now that I'm done bragging..... Here's my question. Can you give me a site where I can find recipes especially for gastric bypass. I've been cheating way to much and don't want to get into bad habits.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know how "legit" They are, but if you're on Pinterest, search bariatric surgery, bariatric recipes, etc. I've found lots of recipes I'm saving for when I'm ready to eat again. My bypass is in 8 hours, yikes! I'm nervous.

They said it all. Eggface will change your life! I've been cooking her crockpot carnitas for family get togethers for years now and all of my non-bariatric patient family loves it too!

Congratulations and good luck! The beginning can be tough, but you will look back on it with so much pride because after surgery and recovery comes transformation of every imaginable kind.

Wow 70 pounds in 5 months that's really awesome I hope the same works for me. I had surgery 9 days ago in down 12 pounds already, really tough with the diet stage foods but it's worth it. I have thought about pizza or soda in almost a week. Really love Water now

Haven't I ment

I am six months out and cheating way too much as well. I found out I don't dump and that is a bad thing because I can eat sweets and must stop. This is a great discussion.

I'm seven weeks post op and have found the cottage cheese with fruit cups in the yogurt section work really well for me, as well as babybel cheese minis.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
