Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

All of us use the internet to information on weight loss surgery – case in point: you’re on BariatricPal! You may be an information junkie who’s eagerly looking for all the details and tips you can find, or maybe you’ve narrowed it down to BariatricPal and a few favorite sites.

My question is: which weight loss surgery blogs do you read, whether it’s for recipe ideas or other WLS advice?

Thanks for your answers!

The World According To EggFace is my favorite! She is so down to earth and forthright with everything. She also obviously puts a ton of time, effort, and love into her blog, and really wants to help people by offering all of her experiences. The good, the bad, the ugly and the awesome! :)

I also really like https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYSpwzYZVMq2DWYaEY6otXg

Her name is Melissa or Mellie May. I watched every single on of her videos before surgery. It took days but greatly decreased my anxiety. Now, after surgery, I enjoy her videos because she holds giveaways and is very honest and open about life after her RNY. She's a great resource and very nice. I have her friended on Facebook. :)

Thanks for these great ideas! Yes, I love The World According to EggFace – what a wonderful story and some delicious recipes. They’re so down-to-earth.

And yes, bari delicious food is a great one. There are a ton of gems on there, like low-carb “bari-bread” made with cream cheese. Super cool!

      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!
