December bypass buddies



Recommended Posts

Mine was Nov 30th so practically December! I'm doing pretty good as far as compliance however just spoke to my surgeon's dietician about Soda and using too much Splenda and have redoubled my efforts and doing things the right way. Also since my first day of bariatric soft starts Christmas Eve I inquired about puréed prime rib cuz I didn't know if it was a lean meat. It is not but since I'm craving it with horseradish sauce she told me to bring some canned chicken chunks that u make chicken salad sandwiches with and combine it with a small amount of Horseradish

Hallejillyah - I LOVE Chai! I will definitely try this! I can't wait! I am not a broth fan at all! And that is an awesome idea about the mason jars! I will have to make a run to our Dollar Tree tomorrow when I do my Trader Joe's run!

Tranquility - Let me know how that chicken and horseradish turns out! I love horseradish.. and red meat. LOL

@ that is a GREAT idea! I will definitely be at the dollor tree looking for those jars tomorrow. Thanks for sharing.

@@SassyMedic congratulations. I was discharged on Friday and I was surprised that I slept so well. But then on Saturday morning at about 330am I woke up to the most excruciating gas pain in my neck and shoulders and to me it was just as bad if not worse than the surgical pain. So just remember to walk almost as much as you sip liquids! I walked about 4-5 times a day and that still was not enough.

Oh and I'm still working on my liquid intake. I'm constantly trying to get it in but its a real struggle for me, but as long as I just keep sipping I should okay.

I can't wait to eat. Changed things up by adding Campbells Tomato juice today. That was different. It was tasty I guess.

      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!!
