Anyone else have a bypass booked for July?

So glad! Hope all is going well! Let us know!

I'm July 20th. Second day of pre-op and it's hard because it's so limited food choice wise. I'd kill for some cheese right now. The Facebook "support group" I'm in is so judgmental it's pointless to even go there. ?

July 20th bypass and hiatal hernia repair

Hi all! I'm new here, just had surgery on Tuesday. I'm a little banged up, but not too bad. The nausea finally passed, yay!

I'm scheduled for a SADI on July 20th. I'm extremely nervous but ready.

Hey Shyguy! I was once told” Don’t try to fit in.. find where you belong”! I hear ya on the food part.. I try to stay busy doing anything.. I’d sell my firstborn for a piece of pizza right now! ? I’m going to reward myself in the end with a trip somewhere.. so I’m looking up stuff on that. Keep busy! Hang in there! ?

I’m in for the sleeve but may I ask why you switched to the bypass? I’m seriously considering switching myself.

Hi Stacy. I really wanted the sleeve! but so many people are having the revison to the bypass after the sleeve. It's because they are having issues with acid reflux. When I had my EDG I had bile in my stomach (acid reflux) I never thought I had it but I did! SO to keep all the problems at a minimum, she advised me that I could still do whichever one but recommended the gastric bypass.

Oh makes sense! I have major acid reflux issues now.. I know bypass is a little more invasive but really.. if their in there they might as well do it all. I really don’t want to go through 2 surgeries myself.. ? You’re making the right choice. I’m going to ask the Dr this week then. Thanks for replying ?

Thanks. I caved in and had some jelly beans. Threw the rest away and I'm committed to getting through this with as few slip ups as possible.
