PLAN B pill after surgery
angb1982 replied to Sensarah's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hopefully for your sake it does... I was taking my birth control pills at surgery time and after and 5 days after my surgery I got my period like I would have if I stopped taking the pill - it was like it wasn't realizing I had birth control in my system at all. However, Plan B is considerably stronger of a medication so fingers crossed for you. :-) -
How long does your body take to regulate its temp better?
angb1982 replied to LisaCO's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am 9 days post op (not on any pain meds) and I'm freezing cold all the time. I figure the fact that by this point I was a couple weeks on clear liquids only probably contributed as my body didn't have protein to use for energy. I'm hoping now that I am on full liquids starting today and can have protein shakes that will maybe take me from freezing all the time to just cold lol -
How many weeks did you take off?
angb1982 replied to Hannah Melinda's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had bypass and took exactly a week off and am going back tomorrow. I feel fine and I don't see any issue going back but I have a sedentary job and sit on my ass all day. I'm not able to lift more than 10lbs so keep that in mind. -
Thanks!! At the hospital now all hooked up to iv and waiting on surgeon.

THIS!! Someone very close to me had gastric bypass 8-10 years ago and when things got rough she started to drink (she was not a drinker before) and she became a FULL fledged alcoholic as it replaced her eating instead. So please please everyone be careful. She almost lost everything -

I am having mine done in Mexico. I work 7 days on, 7 days off and I'm only taking my usual 7 days off work. I plan to be back to work after a week. I do have an office job though and I sit on my butt all day though. -
