Got my surgery date. Any January bypass surgeries??



Recommended Posts

Just an update : My surgery was Dec 15. RNY gastric -bypass : was walking around 2-hours after surgery, 1 night in hospital : Never nauseous, pain was MINIMAL ! NO gas cramps, My lower intestines' rumble from time to time but no pain. Since my surgery I have lost 20 LBs !!!!!! 8 days WOW I'm sure a lot of that has been Water , but still nice to see.. I have no issues with anything I consume except really cold or hot stuff....so I just let it get to more of a normal temp. NO hunger at all, I have to remember to eat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fluid intake are struggle to get to 32oz a day. I've had five surgeries before this one : appendix, molars, both knee meniscus tears, one knee twice. This by far has been a breeze compared the others : So each is different : but some of us come thru the procedure very well ! hope this is your case : BTW I was very Obese 380lbs 5"8"
Thats awesome!

Yes, my nurse called today, surgery date Tues Jan 5th, 2021 for the Roux-En-Y. I am scared and excited, short notice need to get prepared.

Yay! I'm so happy for you. I know I'm excited about mine on the 12th. I have my pre-op visit with my surgeon tomorrow morning. I don't look forward to the 2 wk pre-op diet, at all. I can see you will not have to do a very long pre-op diet, which is good for you. I wish you all the luck, and keep us posted.

Hi everyone...I have a Jan 16th surgery date. Wishing you all the very best with your journeys and looking forward to sharing positive outcomes! 😊

Welcome to the groups. I am excited too. My surgery is scheduled for Jan 12th. I am on my fun pre-op diet. I am on my 3rd day and it hasn't been fun. However, It is all going to be worth it in the end, which is actually only the beginning of our brand new journey of eating and living.. congrats

My surgery was rescheduled due to rising covid cases from November 30th and now I’m having surgery on Jan 11th. Something about it feels right this time.

Congratulations, I'm excited for the both of us. My surgery is the day after yours. Please keep me posted. TTYS

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
