Hypothyroidism and gastric bypass surgery
outofusernames replied to Castrad01's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I was diagnosed with hypo at 10 years old. Weight has been a struggle all my life. I've been on Synthyroid (levo), Cytomel (lio), Armour and a combo of Synthyroid and Cytomel (best imo). In 2019, I had been on only Cytomel for 3 years and had heart, liver and kidney failure caused by Cytomel (lio) toxicity. It had been eating away muscle including my heart. When I was taken to the ER, my heart rate was 20 and they couldn't get a temperature because I had hypothermia. I was in my 30's, btw with no prior health concerns other than hypothyroidism. I believe it was made worse because I thought I had a virus for 3 days but my heart was failing. I went into a myxadema coma. After 11 days in ICU and 3 weeks in the hospital, I couldn't lose weight to save my life. After trying to lose for 8 months, my Endocrinologist recommend sleeve surgery. My loss has not been as fast as many on this board. I had surgery in July and my pre-surgery weight was 208 at 5'5". Pre-surgery diet was only a week long and I may have lost a few pounds. Since surgery I have lost about 56 pounds. My surgeon is fine with my loss. He says to hit protein and water goals but don't go below 1200 calories and eat whatever you want (after post-surgery diet, of course). I suppose I feel that surgery is pointless if I have to starve and restrict. I've done that most my life. I know many don't agree with that and I understand why. I found my tastebuds changed and sweets aren't as important as they were pre-surgery. I hope to meet my goal by 1 year. My periods have been lasting 2+ weeks and are super heavy so now I'm anemic and I'm sure it hasn't helped my weight loss. I am having a DNC soon to see if there is an underlying reason for all the blood. I can't be on normal birth control due to my heart. I went for an echocardiogram this past week and it came back normal! Considering I had cardiomyopathy, a temporary pacemaker, kidney dialysis, and liver failure less than 2 years ago (in my 30s lol), I am happy with my progress. I think having surgery with hypothyroidism is worth it. -
HEAVY Weightlifting is a GAME CHANGER Ladies!!! Pics included!

Weightlifting can be achieved at any age (search up “Train with Joan”) and 55 years young is a good place as any to start. Machines are a great way to start the weightlifting game. I do not know how many days a week you attend the gym, but I highly recommend at least a 3 day split: day 1, upper body; day 2, lower body, day 3 upper body. As you gain more experience and familiarity with your muscle groups, you. An advance that into: day 1 - chest, biceps, triceps; day 2 - quads, hamstrings, and calves; day 3 - back and shoulders. Complete 4 sets for each exercise, and 10-12 reps per set. Your final reps should be difficult to complete. If they’re too easy, go up in weight. Rest 60-90 seconds between each set. Nutrition is important, too. Muscle needs protein and complex carbs for rebuilding and growth. Find foods and protein shakes that you enjoy. You should consume about 1 gram of protein per body weight. Search up complex carbs and see what you can incorporate into your diet. I love oats, beans, and sweet potatoes. I hope this helps! Good luck! -
4 days post op and I’M STARVING!!!
ANewJourneyAwaits replied to AstoldbyLindsey's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I wasn't hungry the first 10 days at all. Though, once I hit day 10, it all changed. Now, at 7 weeks out, I actually DO get hungry. I used to get gradually hungry before surgery. Now, it's either I am not hungry at all or I feel weak/nauseous from hunger and it hits all at once. Some say you can't be hungry after surgery but my surgeon said you could be. So, I guess each doctor has their own take. When you get to the pureed stage, it does get a lot better. It's even better than that when you get to the real food stage and can have good, nutritious food. Good luck! It's all worth it in the end! -
Where do you get your protein goal from?
Pkump replied to Tannedhaggis2's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am only 10 days out, but I have been choosing eggs, cottage cheese, puréed chicken soup and refried beans. This weekend I am going to purée a grilled tuna steak. I am limited because of my stage and rely on my shakes also. -

Got approved 8n about five business days. Surgery was scheduled for January 16th 2020. It will depend on your requirements qnd surgeons schedule. -
Where do you get your protein goal from?
BigSue replied to Tannedhaggis2's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
That early on, I think it’s very difficult to meet your protein goal without protein powder/shakes and protein-fortified foods. My go-to breakfast is half a container of Greek yogurt with half a scoop of protein powder for a total of 19 grams of protein. You can also mix unflavored protein powder into a lot of things like soups, refried beans, etc. I sometimes use Quest protein chips for a protein boost (I make taco bites using 1/3 of a bag of protein chips + taco meat + lettuce, tomato, and plain Greek yogurt, or put crushed protein chips on a salad). Since you can only eat small quantities, you have to eat mainly protein (typically meat). There’s not much room for anything else, even vegetables. I am 6 months out and still find it challenging to get 60 grams of protein per day. I still use protein powder every day. Part of it is that I don’t eat between meals; I guess if you snack throughout the day, you can probably work in some more protein, but I’m trying not to fall back into bad habits. -
Where do you get your protein goal from?
Tannedhaggis2 posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I am 10 weeks post op and would appreciate any advice. My protein goal from dietitian is 70gram per day (she calculates based on goal weight of 70kg) I use protein powder in my coffee which provides 15 grams of protein. No problem drinking 2 or 3 cups over the course of the day. However I know I am not eating healthy. I am finding it very difficult to get my protein from actual foods as the quantity I can eat is small. Can you please share how you reach your protein goal. -

Took me 10 weeks. All depends on your insurance and surgeons requirements. If you are self pay, possibly faster. -

Guest replied to Kat2013's topic in Fitness & Exercise
I've just started strength training 3 days a week. I use the machines since I'm a newbie. Plus I'm 55 yo. I know that the machines aren't as effective as free weights but it's a start. I do 2 sets of 10-12 reps at a weight I find very hard the last 2 reps. I made the decision to start strength training after a DEXA scan showed I was a "skinny fat person" with a BMI of 22 but a body fat percentage of 37%. YIKES! I still do cardio (water aerobics) 4 days/week since my goal is to gain muscle while losing fat. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. If I could have half of your muscle mass at my age, I would be thrilled. -

Yes I have met my deductible, but not my oop max just yet. I think I understand you. I am still in my coinsurance phase so I would be paying 10% of my surgery total? -
Anyone have an easy/fast recovery after VGS surgery?
Kris77 replied to Emilka's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi!! I was sleeved in July 2018. Been in maintenance for a while now. Since 10 mos or so out. My surgery was uneventful (in a good way) stayed overnight which really didn’t think I needed to. No pain other than from the gas bc it was laparoscopic. Home w no problems. Out grocery shopping four days later. I’m very thankful it was an easy road for me. I also hadn’t ever had any surgery to my abdomen before which made it a clean slate. Also followed pre op diet to a t so my liver would be shrunk and as I was instructed. I feel like It’s important to follow everything your Dr says to do. I wish you an uneventful surgery as well!!! Welcome to the club!! -
Hi Lori - so happy for you!! yes, I am the same as you. I’m down to 154 and hoping to be 145 end of March and 130 for end of June. I’m also walking 13,000 to 20,000 steps a day and now doing weights at home. I can’t wait for gyms to reopen for variety. I also am careful of what I am eating and portion. eating very healthy. But will treat myself to something every now and then. But it’s small amounts. I still haven’t had pizza or bread. It has been effort on my part for sure. I’m the lowest I have been in 10 years! Lower than the band. I always wanted to be back to 130-135 but couldn’t get that last 20 off. So I think it’s going to happen with the MGB! Can’t believe it. And what a perfect time we did so. Once things open up I’ll be where I want to be. So very happy!

Heavy Weightlifting completely changes your body!!! I’m 8 years post-op and I incorporate 5-6 days of weightlifting into my routine. I ONLY do about 10 minutes of cardio (10 minute run) each workout day, which in actuality is my warmup before I stretch and lift. I also incorporate hypertrophy (higher rep, lower weight) training into my workouts to help with muscle growth, but the most empowering part is getting strong and hitting new PR’s (personal records). When I first started lifting, I could not lift too much weight. The lower weight WAS my heavy weight. I would find a weight that I could rep 8-10 times before failure. My squats literally started with the bar (a standard Olympic bar weighs 45 lbs). Now, after 6.5 years of consistent training, I can squat 245 lbs, deadlift 320 lbs, bench 185 lbs, curl the 40 lbs dumbbells. I really wanted to fill up my arms & legs with muscle to lessen that loose skin (which I still have, but not so noticeable), so I worked hard. I researched, read, incorporated. I was—and still am—constantly learning, correcting, and incorporating. I learned how to diet for optimal muscle growth, which optimally includes 1 gram of protein per body weight and complex carbs, and good healthy fats. At first I didn’t know what complex carbs were, so I looked it up😂, picked out foods I liked, and incorporated them into my diet. I’m not going to lie, complex carbs are the hardest to consume because of their density (and my sleeve still works when I’m eating the right foods—freak’n sliders!), but I make it work by eating small frequent meals throughout the day (I eat about 6-8 different times, including shakes). I also discovered a supplement drink in powder form called Karbolyn (by EFX Sports) that would help me hit my complex carb macro goal. Anyway, long story short, when I first lost all my weight, I got down to 140 lbs, and a size 4-6. Now, I weigh between 155-160, and still wear a 6 (the 4’s are too small for my arms because they’ve grown with muscle mass 💪🏼😆💪🏼). I’ve literally shred the fat and have added muscle mass. And since 1 lbs of fat takes up way more space than 1 lbs of muscle, I’ve been able to pack on more muscle in the same amount of space. Weightlifting is where it’s at. Man or woman. I’m just trying to inspire women because women tend to fear lifting heavy and fear that they will look manly. I assure you, I do not look like a man. 😂🤣- 28 replies

I am totally dreaming of the day I get there. I haven’t been a size ten since I was in the sixth grade. I remember going to camp as a size 12 and coming back from camp at a size 10.

Day surgery and February 2 surgery date!
AJOhio336 replied to soontobefitmom628's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am sorry to hear that some of you are having nausea and other issues. What is weird is that I never had any nausea, throwing up or anything. I had my sleeve surgery on 2/2/2021. People keep saying that they can barely get done any of protein shakes down.. I have been able to drink the whole 8 ounces from the beginning.. I can eat the puree easily.. and I am still hungry! It is definitely not head hunger as my stomach is actually hungry.. I can feel it. My pre-op diet was 10 days, all clear liquids the day before. Nothing to eat/drink the first day until after I had the leak test the next late morning. I am allowed clear liquids, two protein shales and 4 so-called meals of 1-2 ounces of pureed protein. The only time I feel full is after each protein shake. I lost around 5 lbs in the pre-op diet and 6 lbs since the surgery as of yesterday morning. Has anyone else had these issues? Thanks! -
My starting weight was 396. Iost about 12 pounds pre op. My pre op diet was supposed to be 10 days. I’m saying supposed to be because I did good the first couple days then started fell off. Definitely could’ve lost more during the pre op if I hadn’t fell off. Everybody’s is different though. Some of the girls I follow on insta got to eat during their pre op diet, I was clear liquids only. I have not started to work out yet, I do plan on getting back in the gym next week since I’m about to be released back to work. My doctor wants me to just focus on cardio right now.

Weight loss check in. Surgery 10/14. Starting weight 222 current 182. I feel like it is really slow moving. How many calories is everyone taking in? I am at about 700. How are you all coming along? Sent from my SM-N981U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Thank you for answering my questions. Iv been watching YouTube videos and read the forum on here and they have helped. I was worried about the lifting and the pain because I have two children that are all about mommy sometimes and the videos and forums that I have found don't say anything about the pain after unless you had complications. Iv had both scopes done before so is the gas pain you feel like that? My mom had the gastric bypass about 10 years ago and everything has changed so much since then so she hasn't been much help because now everything is done laparoscopic.

My surgery date was March 12, 2019. Coming up on my 2 year anniversary!! Doing and feeling great. Best decision I ever made.

February 2021 Sleeve Surgery
NaturalMom replied to LifelongJourney's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi 😊 Got my date yesterday, Feb 23. No preop diet (was totally shocked—doc said he’s found they aren’t necessary and feels they’re a bit barbaric 😳) just nothing to eat after midnight before surgery. One overnight in the hospital. Then, it’s full liquids after for 10 days. -
Sleeved at 22 on 01/20/21! I am currently down 34 pounds (weight lost from pre op diet included).
