I’m 2 weeks post op. What are you now starting to eat? -
How much weight did you gain in the hospital?
starbuckslas posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I’m day 2 post op. They weighted me today & I’m up 9lbs. I know it’s water retention & swelling but man it’s disheartening to see the scale creeping up. -

Hi everyone, I’m having rny on May 10th. I’m on day three of my liquid pre op diet. I’ll admit to be really tempted to eat some food. I cannot be in the same room with my husband/kids while they’re eating dinner. Too many temptations. Best of luck to all of you. -
When do the post op gas pains disappear?
starbuckslas posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I’ll be 6 days post op tomorrow from having RNY. My gas pains are brutal. I feel it wrapped around to my lower back & in between my belly button & breasts. I started gas x today for some relief. Also when do our stools stop being explosive liquid? -
Does anyone have any tricks for crushed pills to taste better? I’ve tried taking them with a shot of whatever protein drink I’m having & they’re still vile.

I’ve gotten up twice to walk my laps on the unit. 5 laps each time They’re keeping an eye on my heart rate as my resting heart rate is a bit high 115-120’s HW: 289 SW: 270 First Goal weight: 175 Second gold weight: 145 -

Almost quit on Day 1 of my pre-op liquid diet
starbuckslas replied to Yo-yo girl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The pre op is hard. But this journey is supposed to be hard. Every time I’m tempted to cheat, I remind myself that the reason I’m heading into Bariatric surgery is due to a lifetime of a chest here, and there. I’m on day 6 of my 14 day pre op & Down 10lbs. -

You’ll start a 2 week partial liquid diet. Two protein shakes a day & a lean cuisine for dinner. I’m opting to do straight liquid to get used to doing it after surgery. You’ll also get a body wash for the night before surgery & a bottle of Gatorade for the night & morning before surgery

Same, Dr. Carmine. I had my pre op last week.
