Any 45+ year old women on here with gastric bypass experience?
Bartender1 replied to timmytommy's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Foamies, I was told when I was in the hospital foamy's is actually throwing up even though after bariatric surgery (rueny) you can't actually throw up (I was told) . And ask for sugar-free items keep those very very limited as you know how bad most sugary placements they use in products are so bad for your gut -

Hi Sunny blue, I had rny surgery 2008 was 300 lb lost 175 lb after about a year took kept it off for 10 years about 2 years ago started gaining weight back to 200 trying to figure out what I can do to help myself I would like to know your story if you please thank you -
I feel for you I didn't drink for the first year just like they told me back in 2008 although alcoholism was never mentioned back then and ultimately as soon as I took that first drink the switch went off in my head and I became an alcoholic I've been clean now for 4 or 5 years definitely go to Brighton hospital if you would if you can do it was wonderful experience there and do the 12-step and follow it to the t that's all I can tell you good luck

Hi I'm 65 and had bariatric surgery in 2008. Was 300 lb lost $175 lb took about a year I guess. Kept weight off for a good 10 years 2 years ago started gaining weight now I'm up to 200. Not sure what changed did have an ulcer had to have balloons surgery twice to help repair it. Also in the last 2 years I have stretched out my pouch definitely and my hormones are all messed up because I have cravings which I never had before and overeating which I never could do before wish me luck I'm trying to change it all around again
