February 2021 bypassers?



Recommended Posts

Absolutely surreal to be posting this as I have read so many of these threads! I didn’t think the day would ever come! Excited and petrified. My date is 2/22/21!!

Any February 2021 bypassers out there? I would love to connect and share prep plans and how things go after surgery.

I had last appt with surgeon right before Christmas. Waiting on insurance approval for a February date. He said it should be around first part of February. I'm getting nervous and excited. How long are you planning to be off from work?

Oh. My. Goodness! I am sighing a sigh of relief. I thought that I may have been the only person on the site who is going in for surgery in February! Perhaps I just received my date further in advance than most! Thank you for responding - I think the nerves are really playing with my head too! Ha!

I will be crossing my fingers for you!

I am planning just a week, but I work from home at an office job...so hoping that will be enough time. What about you? Have you bought any items in preparation for after the surgery?

My surgeon has me on a Keto diet with. I have to replace one meal with a Protein Shake until the weekend before surgery. I will be on a full liquid diet the day before surgery.

That sounds pretty good compared to full liquid diet! How is it going for you?

I am not sure what I will be required to do yet, but from the little booklet they hand out, there may be a few options.

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
