Had my RNY- Bypass this morning at 10am. So far liquids are all doing down great and no issues with walking. I am however super tired and I have to be woken up every 4 min to sip my water. Gas pain is nonexistent as of right now but slight pressure in my belly but other than that no pain. I’m feeling pretty good about it all. :)

I've notice a difference in my package also. It's awesome. Sent from my SCH-I545 using BariatricPal mobile app

They should be fine. Just chew thoroughly.

I made most of mine from scratch (not all ingredients) but by using my Vitamix blender. You can actually use their recipes on their website without a Vitamix, by cooking the veggies on the stove top and blending them smooth in a regular blender. They have some excellent soup recipes. I highly, highly recommend their Harvest Cheddar soup. Remember, you can always add unflavored protein powder to any soup to increase the nutritional benefit. https://www.vitamix.com/us/en_us/browse/recipes/Soups/

This is YOUR JOURNEY. Go down your path as you see fit. I only told my husband and a handful of trusted friends. I still haven't told my children or my parents. It's not that I'm embarrassed or ashamed. Having this surgery was a personal decision and I intend to keep it as private as I can. That being said, be prepared that you may have to field questions from concerned loved ones who notice you are not eating very much. Recently, my children took my husband aside and asked if I was sick.

Hope you feel better soon.

When I was sent for my endoscopy I had to go for pre op testing at the hospital a week before. They did an EKG, blood work, checked weight, BP and maybe a few other things. I have to do the same next Thursday for WLS surgery. After that is done I have to get a medical clearance from my PCP because of my comorbidities. Maybe because you are healthy you don't need it? Good luck though!!! And tell G-Ma to chill and stop freaking you out. This surgery is safer than crossing the street.

I'm almost 170lbs lost, and I swear it's tripled. LMAO!

Been castings shadows a while now.... just cool to see greatness reach new heights....lol...

That is true. Like the ground hog finally seeing its shadow...
