Kathryntorres1967 5 Posted May 25, 2016 Hi everyone I had my bypass surgery 1-11-16 . And I have to say it was the greatest thing . Dr said get out of bed to get rid of all the gas and walk the halls . So I did and it helped so much . Couldn't eat at the hospital but was able to drink ally Water so all was good . Second day went home . Now four five months later still having problems eating certain meats. But I can actually love to get on the scale. Love to see it go down instead of up . By the way when I started off I was 289 and 5'3. And now I'm still 5'3 but 217.2 it's not helping my back yet but I'm praying .

James Marusek 5,244 Posted May 25, 2016 meats can be very hard on the stomach. I tended to stay with softer foods such as chili and Soups. meat in this form goes down easier. I have included some recipes at the end of the following article. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
