4 week post op anniversary



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow will be 4 wks that I decided to change my life for the better. So far I've been doing great. I'm down 45lbs. And I'm tolerating new foods every week. I'm just a little nervous about going back to work and starting at the gym. Tomorrow I'm gonna be wiped out. But I know I can do it. No pain No gain........right.

Congrats to you! 45 lbs is awesome! Have you got clearance for regular food, I know many practices differ. I am at stage 2, and I only 2 weeks out. When do you return back to work? What will you say regarding your weight loss? I'm not trying to tell my co workers, it's my business. Best of luck to you!

Thank you. Not quite regular but mushy like eggs fish shrimp soft veggies etc. Things that can be swolled easly when chewed correctly I only introduce one new food a week. My Co workers already knew what was going on with me they were part of my support system. I go back to work tomorrow. You're right that is your business but if your Co workers do ask I would just say I made some life changing decisions and change the subject

      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?
