No Restriction 2 Weeks Post Op



Recommended Posts

Thanks everyone for their responses. I was not filled on my surgery date but have had a hiccup throughout the healing process with a staph infection at my port incision site. I needed it re stitched to help with my healing. In saying that I have lost 5kg's (I think that's like around 11 pounds for those needing the conversion) in 3 weeks. And as I have only had one "moment" when I didn't chew a bit of potato salad properly... Didn't come back but it got stuck.. It's awful. I was supposed to have my first fill today but my surgeon didn't want to until the new stitches come out so a few days time. I'm excited and I'm so ready!

I'm almost two weeks post op and have gained a few pounds back...really sad about that. The hunger is back which is really hard to deal with after everything going so well at first. I understand the reasons for this, but it's still tough. I'm eating very little but I guess not little enough. I'm hoping he'll give me a fill today since I'm feeling and healing great.

Welcome to "Bandster Hell"!

That time between surgery and having enough fill to reach the green zone.

The time you have to fight with everything you have to stick to LB eating rules.

Do you really want to lose weight? Then you can do this! I know I do and I will!

Best wishes!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
