That's good you are down 20 lbs already! What have been your bumps if you don't mind me asking. I'm going thru a little something I consider kind of an issue right now and I would like to know your experience and how you got thru it so far. (I'm 25 and 5 days post op from the bypass btw.)

Well it started with a thrush infection on my tongue. then one of my incisions got infected two weeks out of surgery and now ov found what one of the surgeons I work with told me was a superficial thrombosed vein where I had my IV from the hospital..he said it would go away after time. For the past couple days dinner has been and issue for me. I have two small bites of Water and have to stop because I get sick and need to throw it up.

I'm sorry to hear about those unfortunately experiences. I guess mine is minute compared to yours. Water also makes me feel weird like it makes extra air in my stomach. Nothing else does it but Water what advise has your doctor given you to cope with this?

I'm sorry I meant food. I see my dietician on the 14th. and will ask her about the food but I think I'm going to stay on the soft foods for another couple of days.
