Looking for any April surgeries



Recommended Posts

I sure hope this helps you this time and you feel good inside and out. I'm anxious to hear how everything goes for you!!!

I've only told a few people myself! I just don't want to hear all the negative talk or the input they have. I'd rather just not hear anything. Even the one I told were like eh really your doing that. Do you really want to. So I'm like I'm done! All to myself from this point.

Neat your a sign language interpreter! I always said I wished I knew sign language! If we lived near each other you could teach me some things????

I'm over in England so we definitely don't live near! In Britain our sign language is totally different to ASL although I am planning to do an ASL course soon.

Definitely better to only tell people who really care x

Hi suepro. Whereabouts in England are you?

I'm in Perth Australia...also a long way away but lived in the UK for many years as my father is English.

I think the UK was right into the gastric band, and like Australia has recently moved more towards bypass due to the higher success of bypass and dismal failure of the band as a surgical method. I think the band was really a big expensive con!

Are you having the RNY or the newer Omega loop/ mini bypass?

So early April surgeries how did it go?

It went well. I was April 4th, so I'm a week out today. Still sore, but meeting my Protein and Water goals. Luckily, I haven't had any nausea since the first day. I did have a small intestinal hemorrhage in the hospital and lost a good bit of blood, so I've been sleeping a lot to let my body heal. But really, I can't believe how quickly the last week has gone by!

Good luck to those of you coming up!

I just had my surgery last Wednesday, April 6. I stayed in the hospital 4 days. I'm doing pretty good. Getting my Protein & liquids in no problem. I was so afraid this was going to be much worse. Right now all is good! Good luck to you!!!

      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.
