Lap band to RNY, lots of questions from new guy
Cateyez001 replied to CyclicalLoser's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Hello I'm also 41 lapband in 2009, RNY 9/18. I had my band removed in 2015 it damaged my esophagus. The RNY best the decision I have ever made 1 day in hospital and only 3 days of strong meds just at night. Dumbing the only time I felt it when I ate to fast. My suggestion is don't try need foods out make sure you eat it at home first this way if you dump your dumping will be in comfort of your home. Another suggestion is since you work a lot always have a protein shakes powder or liquid with you. I keep powder in my date at work, in my bag for work etc. I work 2 jobs so when I can't eat I'll make sure I do a shake. I found bypass recovery easier then the band was. I hope this helps I haven't experienced panic attack before so I really can't help with those questions. Good luck Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
September Bypass Buddies
Cateyez001 replied to Bariatric_girlie's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello everyone, today is 7 weeks for me 9/18 surgery date. Recovery was very easy. I eat a lot of Turkey burgers, eggs, chicken and tuna mostly. I made spinach quiche on soft a lot it so good and easy to get down without the crust of course also added turkey sauage (blended it first). I find myself not having to problems with food sometimes chicken isn't the best choice. I'm struggling with getting my liquids in. I wasn't a big drinker of any beverage before surgery so I find myself falling into bad habits of only getting in about 32 oz a day. All my boots are so loose around my calves I use to couldn't find that many that would even fit around them. I'm losing about 2-3 lbs a week. I'm 4'10 start 218, surgery 207 and current 188.9.

Cateyez001 replied to gomezk2's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
My doctor requires 6 months of daily prescription of Nexium after bypass surgery but supposedly people no longer suffer from gerd after that. I'm only 6 weeks out but I take it daily. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app -

That's great first 2 weeks I only lost 7 lbs. Tomorrow is 3 weeks so I will weigh myself again. Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app -
It sounds like you are doing the right things. Just try to make sure you're getting in your liquids. Don't weigh yourself until you are exactly 2 weeks to the day. The first week you were pump with so much gas and fluids. I only lost 7 lbs 2 weeks out. Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app

Surgery date: October 17...Is 1 day in the hospital enough?
Cateyez001 replied to GeTnBackuP's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I has sugary bypass on 9/18 I was shocked they sent me home the next day. They said they try not to keep people long because you are more prone to getting staff infection staying in the hospital. Sent from my SM-G900V using BariatricPal mobile app -
