Who is choosing to keep surgery a secret?

Anybody have problems at work when asking off for surgery?
betty3407 replied to meljoy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I dont see why you would feel like you are letting anyone down, your boss already gave you the green light, so dont stress over it, you have other things to worry about, it sounds very unproffesional on their part to be acting that way. Worst case scenario, consider telling her what surgery it is Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App -

Lapband / Gastric Bypass
betty3407 replied to journey2befit's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Lap band has many possible complications, if there is a choice to be made choose between bypass and sleeve not the band. Bypass is for someone looking to loose 100 lbs and sleeve if you are looking to loose 60 or 80. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App -
My gastric bypass is scheduled for january 5th, I am strictly on high Protein slim fast. Im feeling weak and ready to cheat, what can I eat that won't enlarge my liver too bad? Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App

You really don't want open. It's an 8-10" scar versus 5 very small incision, a slower recovery, higher risk of infection, higher risk of hernias. Just follow your surgeon's instructions. Think of it as success training for the rest of your life. The phrase and thinking "it's not that bad" is a slippery slope! 16 pounds is awesome. Keep going! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Thanks, im just having food withdrawals Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App Withdrawals are so understandable. I've said it before, doing this over the holidays makes you a total superhero!Im attending college so its really the only break i have, i didnt want to have tis stress while I had senior classes for civil engineering, and risk repeating a class or even the semester Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App

My surgeon said that if the liver doesnt shrink he would just do open instead of laparoscopic. So its not that bad. But I hope I can reach the size he wants, so far ive lost 16 pounds just with the liquid diet. Sent from my SM-G550T using the BariatricPal App
