This is a 97% chance that you made the best decision for your health. It's hard to get better odds than that in sport or weather forecasting.

YOU HAVE MADE A GREAT CHOICE WITH AN OVERWHELMING CHANCE OF SUCCESS IN IMPROVING MANY OTHER LIFE OUTCOMES!

Hi Big Vern 619

I am 5 days post bypass surgery and am comfortably up and about - my worry was by far the worst bit! Think on all those things that are going to make us feel great as time goes by, and hold on to that vision of a new healthier you.

You got this...

Great news!!

Everything is going to be ok.. you got this pal! Keep looking forward to drop those pounds ??

I bet you're already in surgery now! Good luck and huge prayers. Happy for you!

You got it bro. I was the same way yesterday morning. It's not bad at all. No real gas pain. My liquids are going down well. You're in good hands bro. Just sit back and enjoy the process. They got you.

You got this. Godspeed and smooth recovery. We were all nervous beforehand, normal reaction.

Good luck on your surgery and remember after the operation to Walk, Walk, Walk.

Good luck. Everything will be fine. Think positive thoughts. Before you know it, you will be relaxing at home, and feeling great!

Thank you! I am resting in my room. Surgery went great. Can't lie..I was in a lot of discomforting pain at first but now I feel great. Trying to sip liquids and pass gas *tmi* lol

Thank you everybody! I am resting in my room, sipping liquids. Stomach still feels tender of course. I've been walking around as well. I have a little discomfort and I'm really trying to pass gas. Anybody got some suggestions???

Congrats BigVern619 I just had my surgery 9 days ago and I am excited for this new step in my life. Honestly with trying to pass gas I just walked and walked and that helped me wish I had a different answer but that was my experience.
