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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
