what to bring on surgery day
manahane03 replied to MizAlii's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my family bring me gas x, not sure that it really helped, you feel so bloated after surgery! Bring your pillow for sure, my surgeon wouldn't let me lay below 40 degrees so you feel like your sleeping sitting up- I used many pillows to help prop me up and help me sleep. I would agree on the house slippers or socks too!! Good luck! -

Question about drinking
manahane03 replied to manahane03's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the help. I feel a lot better. I have learned I probably was drinking too much and that I have to really sit up straight when I drink, the more I lounge the painful it Is. But I'm doing much better and am getting down a lot more fluids than I was! Thanks! -

Post op Liquid Diet Plz B over
manahane03 replied to PrettyMe's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I know how hard the liquids are, I have 1 1/2 days left on mine and dreaming of Monday morning when I can eat a scrambled egg!!! I had a few breakdowns, one over a sonic tator tot that my sister brought over and was eating!! I have just wanted something to eat so bad! But it does get better, you all can do it!! Hang in there! Every time I doubted I just stepped on the scale and got my focus back!! Good luck!!! -

July 2013 - Post Op Thread
manahane03 replied to PittGuy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel the same way as you all do. I had surgery july 22 and can't wait til I can eat a scrambled egg!! I have people that have tempted me the past week, I did have an emotional breakdown over a tator tot but got over it quickly!! It definitely is a head thing! But I'm staying strong. -
Hey everyone! I live north of kc - in kearney, but just had my bypass one week ago today! I'm doing pretty good but kinda feeling a little isolated from friends and family- my whole social life really did revolve around food!! But just saw this thread and thought I would reach out. How is everyone doing?
