Hello i am not a nurse but I am a doctor and I had my bypass surgery on september 1st. It's been a crazy month of changing of dealing with my new gut ha. But at work everyone has been so supportive I expected something completely different. But as you surround yourself with Healthcare people they know that is best for you and it will improve your life significantly. I hope your journey is going well also.

Hi Karen, Carolyn, I do hope to get positive feedback but not sure before I left I sort made jokes about it to see what would be said and like 90 percent of people was total against ire even my husband. I did have the sleeve on 9-19-17 went back into hospital one week later for an another procedure still trying to get over that. I have only lost 8 pounds. I guess I have somewhat of an excuse. No time for getting out to walk yet but maybe next week me and Mygirl ( sleeve ) will rage over the road gym or whatever it take to shed some real pounds. Keep in touch I would like to see both of you ladies outcome. See you around.

      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.
