Awesome!!!! I'm still waiting on a confirmation on my surgery date but due to high confidence in my surgeon I started the liquid diet. Can I ask what meds you've had to take for surgery? I know I was prescribed norco, compazine, an anti acid and something else.




Sure. I was only taking Protonix prior to surgery. Came home with Protonix, ondansetron for nausia, Lovenox for blood clots, carafate(coats stomach), then I also have a scar cream and lidocain lotion for pain.

And Tylenol with codeine for pain.

Hi there! I had my bypass on 9/5 and would love some additional support! I'm in Upstate NY. Doing pretty well except for an incredibly irritating cough! Keeps me up so I haven't really had a good night sleep. Other than that everything went great and felling exponentially better each day!


Have my rny on the 13th in Austin. Good luck to all the September Life Changers!!



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.

I'll be having RNY too. Glad to hear you are doing well. If they put a tube down your throats that could explain the cough. Are you still on liquids?

Hello I can use a buddy as well my surgery is 9/18. What type of pre-op duet does your dr have you doing? What types of food have you stocked up on foe after surgery?

Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app



2 week pre-op diet: 4 shakes and 2 protein bars (all bariatric advantage) a banana or cup of skim milk, up to 3 sugar free Jellos a day plus 64 oz of water. By day 3 I was struggling to get banana and last shake in, despite the low calories I am pretty full and loosing weight. 3 days left...
