Hi everyone, I had my gastric bypass on Sept 5 and I'm glad I found this awesome app. Looking forward to having all of you for support and feedback.

Hi tbooks

So far so good. I had a bit of a rough start. Had serious blood loss, which lead to a couple of blood transfusions. It was pretty scary, but I had an awesome medical team around. I was glad that it happened before I was discharged. As for weight loss i've lost 18lbs since my pre-op shakes. Only 8lbs since the surgery, but loss, is loss. How has your journey been?

Welcome and so glad you are doing good now, I bet you are feeling better and stronger every day. Just keep doing what program your Doc has laid out for you and the weight will come off, This isn't a race, slow and steady and taking care of you are what is so very important.

Hey sweetie, Definitely glad to hear you doing better but hate to hear abt your rough start, hopefully things will get better which Im sure they will if they havent already. And you absolutely right a loss is a loss and every pound cost. Speedy recovery to you so you can start melting the pounds off!!!!!
