4 weeks today post op!



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to tell everyone I am 4 weeks post op and I am feeling great. I still feel hungry at times and get jealous that I can't eat certain things that I see my friends eating. I know soon I will but wonder when? I have only thrown up once and I think it was because I didn't wait long enough between meals. It seems like I am learning when I am full now. As soon as I feel it I just stop eating. I am drinking Protein but don't feel like I am getting enough. I hope to see my doctor in the next few weeks so he can say my stomach is good to go. The good news is that when I went for my sugary I was 292 and today I weighed in at 257. I absoulety feel great and happy my doctor convinced me to get the sleeve over the lap band. Thanks for all the information on this site and support. I am still sticking to mushies to be on the safe side and actually had 1 glass of wine and an amstel light last Saturday. I was only able to drink half of the beer which was funny. It takes a little used to getting familiar with your new body but the compliments from friends are well worth it.

Best regards to all,

Mo

Funny thing is that I went from drinking a lot of coffee with Snacks at work to none cold turkey. I also need to start drinking more Water because I am not getting enough in. I have cheated once with a milkshake from jack in the box but could only have about half of it.

      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?
