Hello everyone. I'm on month 5 and have lost 70lbs!



Recommended Posts

Now that I'm done bragging..... Here's my question. Can you give me a site where I can find recipes especially for gastric bypass. I've been cheating way to much and don't want to get into bad habits.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know how "legit" They are, but if you're on Pinterest, search bariatric surgery, bariatric recipes, etc. I've found lots of recipes I'm saving for when I'm ready to eat again. My bypass is in 8 hours, yikes! I'm nervous.

They said it all. Eggface will change your life! I've been cooking her crockpot carnitas for family get togethers for years now and all of my non-bariatric patient family loves it too!

Egg face is the best!

Congratulations and good luck! The beginning can be tough, but you will look back on it with so much pride because after surgery and recovery comes transformation of every imaginable kind.

Wow 70 pounds in 5 months that's really awesome I hope the same works for me. I had surgery 9 days ago in down 12 pounds already, really tough with the diet stage foods but it's worth it. I have thought about pizza or soda in almost a week. Really love Water now

Haven't I ment

I am six months out and cheating way too much as well. I found out I don't dump and that is a bad thing because I can eat sweets and must stop. This is a great discussion.

I'm seven weeks post op and have found the cottage cheese with fruit cups in the yogurt section work really well for me, as well as babybel cheese minis.

      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?
