October Bypass

After a long and hard fight to get approval for my Bypass - it finally got approved and am booked in for surgery on the 1st of October.

The nerves are kicking in already and have been a ball of emotions today! Now begins the next month of a diet to ensure I am in better shape for it.

I keep asking myself am I doing the right thing, I know I am as I am currently on a horrible road and if I keep going down the road I am going, it's not going to end well!

Please tell me I am doing the right thing, and that you have all felt similar emotions!

Surgery 10/29
  • Author

Has anyone started a private group on facebook for October surgery?

I am 12days post surgery now. Text book recovery and feeling great. Went back to work on Wednesday (9days post op) and it's great to be back into a routine. Already feeling the weightloss in my clothes.
Long may this continue. Hope everyone is having a great weekend ♡

Surgery 10/29

I'm currently on the liver shrink diet, but its not full liquid. My surgery is on 10/19. The day before surgery I have to do full liquid only.

I just had a revision from lapband to sleeve on the 1st of October.

How are you feeling? When did you have the lapband done? I had my lap band surgery in 2009. Revision is schedule for 10/19. Just slight nervous & pray it's done in one procedure
