Gastric Bypass Surgery Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

I go into surgery for RNY Gastric Bypass tomorrow morning in Toronto at Toronto Western Hospital. I have to be at the hospital by 8 and then my surgery starts at 11am. I can't believe that day is finally here, it seems like I have been waiting for this new chapter of my life for a very long time.

Female age 25

Height: 6'3"

Starting weight: 365

Surgery weight: ?

Goal weight: 225

This is the last time I want to ever be this heaven or look like this again. I'm saying goodbye to this body and hello to the new me!

Ok I got home today. The surgery went great but took 3.5 hours cause apparently I had lots of muscle, weird! I'm still in some pain in my stomach but I'm walking pretty well. Trying to figure out the eating part is next!

Hi CassJones. How did your surgery go? How are you doing? I'm in Toronto as well but I haven't had surgery yet. I just went to orientation two weeks ago. I hope it's all working out the way you want.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
