Hi, I’m new here. I had a gastric bypass (RNY) on Tuesday. I was back home Wednesday and doing ok. I’m living and working abroad in a country where I am not completely fluent in the local language so I wasn’t put into a support group with locals, but hoping I can find that here. ☺️

So far, it certainly hasn’t been a pleasant experience but it’s also nowhere near the nightmare I expected. (I know it’s still early days!)

Tuesday! Take it easy and pass that gas!

Hi there, Congrats on your surgery. Give yourself an easy time for a few weeks, sleep, drink, eat and rest some more. You will soon be through the worst.

Everyone on here will help you in any way we can.

I'm having mine on 8/1, so we will be pretty close!

Mine 8/16.

It will be 3 days since surgery how you feeling now?

congrats!!! Keep your focus on your meal plan. A lot of us are at different stages so becareful of the advice you get. If you have questions write them down and get with your doctor. Maintain a good relationship with your dietician!

I’m feeling quite ok! Although very tired and a bit sore which I suppose is to be expected.
