I am 7 months correct. I actually had plastic surgery years prior. I had a mommy makeover by dr miami! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Well I had a Mommy Make Over which consisted of a tummy tuck, Brazillian butt lift, breast implants and liposuction. Follow Dr. Miami on Snapchat. The tummy tuck was the worst. I thought I was going to die. It is outpatient surgery and total recovery was a total of 8 weeks. Thanks I love having my stomach so tight. Oh when they did the tummy tuck they also sewed my stomach muscles together. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Excessive Gas and Severe Abdominal Pain
pdallariva replied to pdallariva's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
My gallbladder was removed. I am in the hospital now being admitted. I am severely constipated. Going to try a colon cleanse. I am kind of freaking out because they originally came in and told me that my CT scan showed an appendicitis. However my appendix was removed years ago. They looked at the scan again in told me that because of my gastric bypass surgery my insides are all tangled. So that's why they made the mistake. ???

First I want to say Thank You to everyone on here that responds to my post. I truly appreciate the support. I'm am 7 months out and down 120lbs. My body hurts so bad some days. I walk two miles a day and try to do stretches when I am feeling okay. Does anyone else have this problem? How do you ease the pain? I am allergic to ibuprofen so that's out.

I cannot use any salt except sea salt due to allergies also I am allergic to adhesive so cannot do the Patches. My potassium always runs low and it hurts so bad when they run it through my veins. I live in Florida so it's pretty warm. I also do home meditation and do my own version at home of stretches!! Thanks for the tips. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have tried high sugar but get horrible dumping syndrome and veggies are out due to to much gas. I actually did not have the surgery due to weight but actually because I had horrible reflux and I was not emptying all the way from my gastric emptying test. I was only emptying at 80%. But it was a plus to lose the weight. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hello! I am having a similar problem. I am weak and sick almost everyday. I'm 7 months out and down 120lbs. I cannot tolerate any Protein drinks as I get sick immediately. My surgeon suggested enzymes and probiotic which neither of them worked to make me not so sick. Between the nutritionist and the doctor there seems to be confusion. My doctor told me to stop all Vitamins and then the nutritionist tells me not to stop taking them. I told the nutritionist that I am getting sick everyday so she tells me to stop all vitamins and come in for monthly B12 shots. This past week I am down 10 lbs and I'm nervous I'm going to be to thin. I barley have any body fat on me at all. Any help?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My surgery was 06/2016 and have lost 110lbs. I feel great now that I have been through all the rough patches! There is one thing that I can't figure out though. I know we are supposed to keep sugar to a minimum intake however when I do take in sugar (more then allowed) I feel weak, sweaty, and nauseated. Does this happen to anyone else and does anyone else have the same? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was originally 240lbs. I had a tummy tuck back in 2011. I am actually going back to redo my breast and butt. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My surgery was 06/16 and I am nausea everyday. Last week I had my 6th scope to look for a stricter which came out negative. My surgeon said try allergy meds for post nasal drip. I tried the Med's for one week with no success. Now he said to stop taking all Vitamins and start taking enzymes. It's annoying because I cannot find enzymes. I also take zofran 8mg, zofran 8mg under tounge and phenegren suppositories 50 mg a day. I do not take all at once. The suppositories work wonders but I'm restricted to 50mg a day and only work for 4 hours also they make me so sleepy. My body has bruises all over it from low zinc all over it and it hurts so bad. I was taking zinc vitamins but my levels never increased. I had a massage therapist come out this am and now I hurt even worse. Any help out there for me?

I am allergic to all NSAID and I follow my diet. I told him I am taking a Probiotic and he said to add enzymes. My body bruises because of the low zinc. I am confused about the Vitamins too. I think it's time for a second opinion. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

family that won't stop eating badly ?
pdallariva replied to marissa_d's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I feel your pain. However you will just stop thinking about those foods. You can teach yourself by eating there and see what happens. Not being mean but it's what I had to do. Also you seem like you need a better support system. Make sure to stay in touch on here. Lastly tell your family if they want it they can go get it when they are able to see while driving. Best of Luck!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Just make sure that you have a good support system and be ready for a huge life style change. It's a trial and error kind of thing!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Don't worry about eating to much. Your body will reject it almost immediately. For the gas you can lay on your back raise your legs and pretend your peddling a bike. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
