I'm super shy and haven't really reached out to anyone yet. My entire process started really slow and has literally been moving so fast that it's hard to keep up. I started this process in July. My highest weight was 401 and my current weight is 360. I met with the surgeon yesterday, my surgery is scheduled for next Friday and my liquid diet starts today. It's hard to believe that I've met all my goals, got cleared from nutrition and psychology and saw the surgeon in just a few months. It been almost surreal. I'm hoping to make a few friends and help encourage people going through this process too! Here's a little bit about me:

Name: Angel

Age: 26

Height: 5'8

Cw: 360

Hw: 401

Nice to meet everyone! Good luck on your journeys. [emoji3]

Welcome!! Don't be shy everyone here is great. You got this!! Best of luck on this incredible journey.

Thanks so much for the encouragement. Tomorrow is my procedure at 8:30am. I've lost 15 pounds on my liquid diet this past week. Officially 345 today!

My advice is sugar free popxicles. They count as liquid and feel so good going down.

I'm 9 days out from my surgery. Walking helps with all the medical stuff and the boredom in the hospital and at home.

Did you have a lot of pain? I had laparoscopic surgery before and the worst of it was the gas pains...

I’m still having lots of pain from surgery. I wish the dr would give me stronger medicine. I’m onky on panadol 3 x day. Is this normal?

I had pain for first 5 days then I was ok. My Doc prescribed hydracodone. It worked well to kepp pain in check.

Sorry to hear you are hurting.

Hi Bypass lady. I'm in Vic too. Scheduled for my revision from band to RNY in Jan. If you are in a lot of pain I would advise you to call your surgeons room and see what they advise.

How did it go? We’re rooting for the!

My gas pain wasn't bad.
I had surgery at 7am and was walking by 3pm. I think that really helped. Every time I would wake up I would walk a lap down the hall
