January 2020 Surgery Date

  • Popular Post

Let's make this the official January surgery date thread. I will be having my surgery on 1/31/2020. I was certain that I was going to have the vsg, but I'm learning more and leaning towards the rouxny (rny) gastric bypass. Whatever you decide, let's get this thread started and support one another. I'm just starting it, but anyone can feel free to jump in and keep it going ?.

I know what you mean about head hunger! That’s the worst! I’m 5 days post op and am counting the days to purée .. I would give my left kidney for a mozza stick! I won’t because it will hurt too much.

None. But I've only had half a Jello and half a yogurt. Plus Water of course.

Another update. Had my post op last Friday. Down 20 pounds since surgery on 20 Jan. I've gone from 3XL to XL and my pants size from 46 to 40. I can get into 38 but it's a tad tight.

Great work keep it up!

I registered to the website earlier today. I wish I knew you guys before my surgery on January 22nd. I’m almost three weeks post op. I couldn’t read the whole 56 pages. Anyone here is where I’m right now (3 weeks on puree/soft food diet)? How’s your recovery doing? Do you have to wait 4-6 weeks for recovery like my surgeon told me? Anything you think is important that we should know at this time?

sorry to ask a lot

I’m just trying to find matches, so we could help each other ^_^
