Hi. I'm in Houston and having bypass surgery on Sept 6. I'd love to some bypass buddies. I was going to have Sleeve surgery but due to Gerd my doc wants me to have the Bypass.

I'll be doing a 2 week liquid diet but my surgeons office provides the shakes.



That's awesome that they cover the cost of the shakes I didnt ask and they didn't mention it. I'm going to call them on Tuesday. I just bought 2 things of preimer shakes because it was so much cheaper then the Bariatric Advantage. I'm trying to locate somw inexpensive liquid vitamins for the first month. Have you found any?

They don't cover the shakes unfortunately. They just require using what they supply which I pay for. I'm hoping to hear good news regarding my surgery on Tuesday.

I could use an online friend(s) too (I'm in NC)- my surgery is September 26th. I'm getting both excited and nervous! If anybody has Vitamin advice, I could also use them! I know Walmart sells liquid vitamins, but I'm not sure how good they are for surgery. I think it has alcohol in it to make them liquid.

I know that Centrum makes Vita-Mints that are melting- I just need to compare stats to make sure it has everything needed!

I did it!!! Gastric Bypass was done yesterday morning. Spent last night in hospital and tonight I'm in my own bed. I won't lie, there is some pain but seems to be well managed with meds. Getting in and out of bed is the worst! Any movement hurts but today it is better than yesterday and I'm hopeful that continues. I passed swallow test and was told that if I tolerate clears tomorrow I can add shakes to full liquid diet.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
