Aries Twin

Thank you all for your comments. I am almost a week out from surgery and I am down nearly 13lbs. I can't believe my eyes when I get on the scale. I am feeling great and my only regret is not doing this sooner! I am a little tired of the protein shakes but I still have about another week before I can progress to the next food stage so I am staying the course. If guy you guys have any suggestions on how to get around these overly sweet shakes please let me know. Thanks for the support everyone. So happy to be a part of this forum.

I had gastric bypass surgery yesterday morning and believe it or not,a day later and I am feeling pretty good. Very bloated from the air they pumped into me but no nausea or severe pain. I see I have gained about 9 pounds from the IV fluids they were giving me in the hospital but I am sure they will come off soon enough. Has anyone else experienced this? Has anyone else had the experience of feeling better than you thought you would? Reading some of the forums before my procedure had me really scared.

My twin brother and I have just gotten our surgery date for Gastric Bypass surgery. We are scheduled for 1/28/20. We will go in together on the same day with the same surgeon. We are excited to go through the process together. It will be nice to have each other as a support system but still a little nervous about what to expect the first few weeks after surgery. So happy to have found this app. Does anyone have any pointers? Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you so much for the well wishes. I am here at the hospital. My procedure will begin soon.

Hello Qianmij, Thanks for your message. We are very excited about having the surgery and beginning our weight loss journey. I am little nervous about the Post Op recovery but know that is part of the journey. I know preparing ahead of times with vitamins and such will be key. How much have you lost so far?

My surgery is January 28th. I am going to have Gastric Bypass RNY. Good luck with your surgery. Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app
