October 2016 Bypass Buddies?



Recommended Posts

Hi Rosey! My surgery was scheduled for 1:30 PM yesterday but I didn't actually going to Sergie after 630 which meant I was starving and a bad mood LOL woke up feeling good no pain no discomfort and all the stuff was super nice. I live in Monterey County Salinas to be exact so I had a 2 1/2 to 3 Hour Dr. I didn't really have pain until we got home from Fresno thank God for meds! Thank you for your concern :-)

Hey guys! So I've survived!! VSG conversion to RNY. I woke up easily and was feeling great and walking around. I was discharged and my husband and I made the 3 hour drive back home. I woke up this Friday feeling good but annoyed with the drain. Gross. It's been soaking my clothes and just looking nasty. Lol. Around 4pm yesterday I stated feeling sick very suddenly with the chills. Called my Dr. and he said to come back. I did. And I was told that my potassium , Iron, and magnesium levels were very low and I needed to be put thru IV. I just felt terribly. I was finally released a few hours ago. Still feeling a bit weak but I'm glad it wasn't a leak. ????

Hello....I too believe in the same One that created you. I'm scheduled for October 4th. I was hoping to have the sleeve but after my endoscopy, I have a large hiatal hernia so I will have to have the bypass. You can do this! When you are in doubt call on the One who keeps us from falling. I'm praying for you and happy belated birthday!

Hey guys thanx for the support! I once again had to go the the hospital. I have a huge hematoma on the left side of my abdomen. So painful. Warning! Even if you feel good don't over do it!!! To make it worse I caught a cold. I'm not super woman like I assumed I was. I hated calling the Dr on a Sunday morning. Ohh well, healing time an extra 2 weeks

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
