Hiya, I'm Denise. I live in Royal Oak and had surgery August 3. I had the bypass at McLaren Macomb. How about you? Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm almost 3 weeks post-op and have only lost 6 pounds. I'm down a clothing size and halved my blood pressure medicine dose, cut my insulin by 2/3, and have been taken off one diabetes medication. I'm thrilled with that progress but admittedly a little bummed with the scale number not going down much. My surgeon looked at my tracking and said I'm doing everything right and to be patient and not worry about it. I know this is true but it's still disappointing comparatively when I read of significant losses by other bypass patients. I am happy for them though. Anyone else have this experience?

I've been reading posts on this site for months pre-surgery and wish to thank you for all the support you've given to gastric surgery patients. I had gastric bypass done August 3 and other than uncomfortable gas, I've had a great experience. I came home on the 4th. Starting just before discharge I began passing blood clots. Dark purple. Doctors said it's eliminating blood from the surgery. They said it's okay and approved my discharge That makes sense but I don't remember reading about post-op bleeding on any posts. Did anyone else have this? I'm not pale and I have energy. Hopefully it will run it's course soon. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app
