    Smoking and Gastric Bypass

    I quit in July I knew that I would be having surgery in September. I am a nervous Nelly and keep thinking if I didn't stop smoking somehow I would do poorly in surgery or unable to wean off oxygen so I just quit cold turkey I finished out my pack and never bought anymore. a few times I smoked on a e cigarette and e hookah but once I stopped smoking after a few weeks I didn't even want that my hardest thing has been by far giving up my addiction to food!
  10. I am feeling the same way too, my surgery is on the 30 and I have been happy scared hasn't really hit me yet this next week IM anticipating on being a nervous wreck lol! good luck
  11. The stitches are supposed to be taken out each surgeon is different about when they come out. At my hospital I take the staples out on the day of discharge. Have you gone for your 1 week post OP yet

  16. apparently it's a piece of silicone that is applied to the new pouch it helps to keep you full and help your new pouch from stretching I've read some articles about it and have been doing research I may have that put around my pouch so I wanted to hear if anyone else knew about this or had it.

    Vitamins

    no IM not sick of taking my vitamins I would much rather take them than to have to take metformin, insulin, prilosec, losartan with hctz, ultram ibuprofen all those things that I had to take to try to prevent the other obesity related conditions from being overweight for far to long. IM loving the thought of only having to 3 vitamins 2x daily and being healthier. surgery date is 9/30/13
