Can anyone compared RNY to c-section?
MichelleTN replied to RNYDawn's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I was up walking as soon as I could feel my legs again with my c-section and I was up walking a couple of hours after my RYN. I would say the gas pains are the worst about the RYN and the only thing that helps is walking that hall every hr. The worst thing about my csection were the staples. After you get the gas out its smooth sailing with the RYN. My pain tolerance might be better than others, I didn't even take a pain pill with the RYN but I did with a c-section. I think you'll feel better with the RYN. -
Liver Shrinkage? Can someone explain this concept to me?
MichelleTN replied to mommy2015's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgeon only does a one day cleanse. One of your cuts in stomach is a liver retractor to hold the liver out of the way. -

I have it. My mind gets so foggy without my meds. Make sure they do labs every 3-6mos to make sure your on the right level of meds. It goes up & down sometimes. Good luck.

Hey, how long did you take off from work after surgery?
MichelleTN replied to WinchSight's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
2 weeks. -
My doctor & nurse said it was ok. Anyway to get in my liquids was fine. Except soda.

I drink unsweetened tea every day. Hasn't hurt me. It's the only way at first I could get my water in. Water made me sick first few weeks.

Fast weight loss causing hormonal issues?
MichelleTN replied to WL WARRIOR's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I would go to your obgyn & have them check everything out. It's probably from weight loss but my cousin started menopause at 38. -
15 more lbs & I'll have a 2 in front of my weigh,wish it was a 1 but I haven't seen a 2 since my son was born, he's 7 now. :-)

It's so hot here & I have a hard time eating when it's hot but I do get in 2 shakes which is 60g. And my air conditioning just went out 2 days ago so I was hoping I'd sweet some off lol.
-
Ok I've been losing & gaining the same 2 lbs for 2 weeks.. trying not to get discouraged.

what foods are you all eating 2 months post RNY?
MichelleTN replied to MamaDDDD's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My dr said I need more calories but it is so hard to think of something to eat. I'm so sick of chicken. I really never get hungry & I'm so afraid of overeating. Nothing really sounds good to me. I get maybe 400-500 calories a day, they told me to get 1000. I'm sure not eating enough is slowing my weight loss. I've been stuck for almost 2 weeks. Good luck to you & know your not alone. -
April 21st, 361 Today 325 Hoping to get to 2s soon. Been in a stall for a week. Feeling good with more energy. Everyone seems to be doing good!!!
