Hi, I'm in Australia too, but no I haven't had the Omega loop gastric bypass, first I've heard of it. I looked it up, I see its also know as mini gastric bypass which I have seen mentioned on the boards.

There is a whole sub forum that type of surgery here https://www.bariatricpal.com/forum/1111-mini-gastric-bypass-surgery-forum/

I hope you are recovering well! What is your post op diet routine for the next couple of weeks?

Hi, I’m an Aussie too and had a sleeve done on the 4 June.

Im on liquids til the 17th, then on to soft/mushy food for 4 weeks.

I haven’t been given any goals yet, just to drink plenty of Water and lots of Protein. I see my nutritionist next week so assume I’ll be given nutritional and calorie goals then.

I think the team wait to see how you go before they give you goals. So far I’ve been really lucky.

I had Omega loop mini gastric bypass.
6 more days of fluids. Had nausea, and stomach still quite sore, but ondansetron and buscopan are helping a little.
40g of Protein each day, filled with two opti shakes (or a shake and a soup) plus some diet cordial.
See the GP in the morning and get some pathology done before I see the surgeon and dietitian for follow up next week

Hi guys I am in desperate need of some more participants for my latest study on the psychological effects of lockdown on Bariatric patients being conducted in Australia. Pleeeeease can you do my survey if you can spare 5 mins! I would be sooo grateful - and it will be contributing to a good cause. I will publish results here too.
