    Becky, I am so happy to hear that I am not the only one with gulping issues! I had my surgery on the 16th of Sep. I too found that hot (tempid) liquds go down easier...........Good Luck to you as well! Tracy

    Yes, I am a reformed gulper! Taking large sips gives me the hicups or heartburn! Good luck with your surgery!
  6. Hi my name is Tracy. I just had my surgery on 9/16! I am 5'6" and I weight 267. It was a long journey for me to get here! When I started the process I was 23 lbs heavier. My goal is SIZE HEALTHY! I am not sure what that number is but I will know when I get there! I live in Seymour, IN, that is about 50 miles N of Louisville, KY, 60 miles South of Indianapolis and 60 west of Cincinnati. I am a married to a wonderful man, Craig, we have been married for 9 years! He is very supportive of my surgery and ME! My family all resides on the East Coast. They are also very supportive. I have a part time job at Aldi (the grocery store), I was going to school truing to find my way ( for the 2nd time around) but I sat this semester out because I knew I was having surgery. I substitute teach and I travel to see my family! I am only 4 days post op.... although I thought I was prepared, in reality I had NO CLUE what to expect. I am trying to get the eating/drinking thing down.... I am hungry and have heartburn, I think! That is my story thus far...and I am stickin' to it! :thumbup:
  7. Tyler- I am 4 days post-op, my Dr. recommended Benefiber, that I added to my protein shakes, walking does help a lot!

    Where in IN do you live? I live in S. IN and my doctor's in Columbus, his name is David Lee. He is very nice, his staff is supportive. I have my surgery on Sept. 16th-- 4 days ago. Good Luck
  9. Hi, my name is Tracy. I had surgeryon 9/16....so I am 3 days post-op. My surgery was preformed by Dr. David Lee (Columbus, IN). So far I am doing well I think. I can not seem to get on a schedule or eating, drinking and getting all of my protein shakes in. At the time of my surgery I weighted 267.5#, I am 5'6", 42 years old. My husband, family and friends have been very supportive! I know many friends who have had the bi-pass surgery they have different dietary requirements and restrictions. I am a little nervous because I am hungry off and on through out the day and I still need to relearn how to "sip". Any comments or recommendations would be great!
