Relationships after rny!



Recommended Posts

I have not been in a relationship for a few years now and have not been looking for one...well about 1 1/2 month before surgery I met a man online..not a dating site...we began talking thru email everyday...i kept telling myself I'm not going to get involved because I want to spend this time working on me and don'T want to get sidetracked...i didn't take long tho for us to feel we are in love...we have not met yet in person but we talk daily on the phone...he asked me several times not to have the surgery as he was concerned but I had to do this for me and my health...of course he knows what I look like....we plan to meet very soon but I have to admit I'm a little nervous! I'm hoping my fears don't get in the way...anyone have any advice for me?

Sky, that's pretty cool. Just take it real slow and you'll be fine. :-)

My relationship with my husband has gotten stronger. I will say other female family members have not treated me well. It's true that others that are used to eating with you etc do not know how to be around you after surgery. It's part jealousy & their own issues with food they haven't dealt with. Keep those that support you close.

A wonderful relationship is in your future.

Thank you for your kind words... I ask all to pray for me as this has been a very rough time for me. I have been very depressed. I have a hx of bipolar' date=' major depression and high anxiety. I am not on any medications at this time due to exercise prayer and meditation. Every time I work out its like taking an antidepressant due to the release of endorphins. The up side yo this is that my new found confidence has made it easier for me to go out into the world and meet people

      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?
