Feeling Frustrated and Disappointed...
Ms954jkwd replied to Sleeveddiva605's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I head told I had no wait also, but my BYN dr has guide lines so I went from December 2014 to May 6 2015 b4 I got mine I had so many test done that the dr required b4 surgery it took a long time I was ready to give up and my day was here. I say talk to the Dr you first saw and see if he can help you with your insurance problem I bet he will. Good luck -
I had my surgery May 6 2015 I am very lucky I had 1 week of pain, I'm about 14 weeks out I have lost 35 pounds thought should be more, I'm disabled so that slows it down. My PCP is the best he said look how long you tried to lose weight you look great so a pound is a pound. My stomach is tough I eat what I want but also get 100 grams of protein everyday can't eat much so about 700 calories a day sometimes more. Just listen to your body it knows. Wishing you luck.

I'm at 7 weeks post- op starting losing hair after I started gallbladder meds had all kinds reactions to it asked a support group last night was told to stop it Wow I got some sleep first time in 3 weeks started meds. Biotin is good but 15 mg of zinc a day also. I got from GNC a supplement called be-beautiful, also take 5000 extra biotin and zinc. Eat extra Protein too helps I was told. This was from about 45 people that are post-op of 2 months to 5 years love this group. Hope this helps

Congrats to all that have their dates, I had my gastric bypass May 6th, I'm doing good best I can tell you is follow the diet plan they give you. Don't get disappointed if you do lose a lot right off I'm only down 14 pounds but for me I'm very happy not going up coming down. Make sure you eat slow drink only 20 mins b4 eating and 20 mins after I got sick one time my fault stomach was full but tasted so good ate to much that's a no no.. I feel so much better my depression is almost none existent my energy is coming back. I wish you all good luck -

When did you start running after surgery?
Ms954jkwd replied to F4T-TRAP's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have never been a runner, I got the go ahead to walk when I left the hospital like 10 mins at a time and build up from there. I have medical problems so walking any distance is very hard for me hoping this surgery helps me with this problem. Good luck to all -

Good luck I'm almost a month out from Gastric bypass, my advise is pay attention to your stomach it will tell you when enough is enough. Don't lay flat food or drinks want to come out. I've only got sick once cause it tasted to good to stop. Nothing taste that good. Glad to answer any questions you have.
