Bariatric surgery was a big mistake
Mary Ellen Kane replied to Alvinchicago's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I have had my bypass 1yr & lost 115lbs & at goal weight. I eat everything just small amounts cause small stomach. I ate a hot dog & roll w/ onions last night with fresh cherries. Waiting a 1/2 hr to drink isn’t end of world. I have never been happier! So glad I had it done. July 5th is 1yr... -

Not many people at the gym would be critical. They are there for the same reason. if anything they give you credit for trying . People too busy thinking about themselves! -

I am new to this sight, I read the Forum but usually don’t respond. BUT ... i read yours & I had band removed after 3 yrs @ not very good results. The adjusting to the adjustment takes forever & bumping against washer & sink. I got gastric by-pass in July 5th & I am sooo happy. 6 Mths & 70lbs . no pain or throw up... I went to NYU Langone & was very pleased. Never hungry which is odd but then eating isn’t a Thrill or entertaining for me . i find things to do that are fun to do....

Hi, I am so upset & discouraged!!! I was banded October 2013... I lost 50# the first 6 mths and had several over fills & then under fills. I have gained probably all weight because the food that goes easy is chocolate, chips, icecream. I had my last fill 1 mth ago & still can eat a whole hamburger & slice pizza. I want some guidence spoke y.to nutritionist then back to bad habits with no restrictions. Please looking for help if anyone has had support and advice. Many Thanks, mel
