December 2017 Gastric Bypass!

[823freckles 34]

Had a two-week follow-up appointment with the bariatric advanced practice nurse last night. She said my incisions look good! I am cleared to start Vitamins, transitioning to soft solid foods, and baths! Back to work next week (a mix of ugh and yay)!

And I will send you good vibes! So many post from us RNYers so nervous the day before, then relieved the day after, then delighted as the struggles, and the weight, fall away.

Hi everyone, I'm new on here and wishing I'd found it before my RNY surgery on 12/18. I wish I was feeling as successful as some of yall. I feel like I'm struggling to get in my Protein and fluids daily. I'm still really sore internally and struggling with motivation to get up and around because I hurt so bad. The number on the scale is dropping...I've lost 19 pounds since I started my pre op diet on 12/11...but I'm just feeling miserable and having a hard time fighting off the feelings of deep regret.

It's definitely a struggle for to get the fluids and Proteins in as well. I will tell you that when I do better at it (not even at goal!) I feel better. I'm using timers to help with my pacing. Plus them going off reminds me to start another cycle.

Best surgery wishes for those going in tomorrow!

Hi! Newbie here. I had my surgery on 12/7. Since my pre-op diet & now surgery, I’ve lost a total of 64 pounds. 30 of that is since surgery. For the most part, I’m doing well. The problems I am having is feeling nauseated with drinking most fluids and fatigue. I am told this will pass.

Have you been exercising since you arrived from the hospital? how many minutes or hours per day? I lost 24 since the surgery but in the last 2-3 days I have not lost any weight. I'm still doing my liquid diet.

Me neither! Nothing lost since Tuesday! Still, I have dropped a pants size. But wasn’t expecting a 2-week stall !

I need to pick up the exercise...
