October 2016 Bypass Buddies?



Recommended Posts

Hi Rosey! My surgery was scheduled for 1:30 PM yesterday but I didn't actually going to Sergie after 630 which meant I was starving and a bad mood LOL woke up feeling good no pain no discomfort and all the stuff was super nice. I live in Monterey County Salinas to be exact so I had a 2 1/2 to 3 Hour Dr. I didn't really have pain until we got home from Fresno thank God for meds! Thank you for your concern :-)

Hey guys! So I've survived!! VSG conversion to RNY. I woke up easily and was feeling great and walking around. I was discharged and my husband and I made the 3 hour drive back home. I woke up this Friday feeling good but annoyed with the drain. Gross. It's been soaking my clothes and just looking nasty. Lol. Around 4pm yesterday I stated feeling sick very suddenly with the chills. Called my Dr. and he said to come back. I did. And I was told that my potassium , Iron, and magnesium levels were very low and I needed to be put thru IV. I just felt terribly. I was finally released a few hours ago. Still feeling a bit weak but I'm glad it wasn't a leak. ????

Hello....I too believe in the same One that created you. I'm scheduled for October 4th. I was hoping to have the sleeve but after my endoscopy, I have a large hiatal hernia so I will have to have the bypass. You can do this! When you are in doubt call on the One who keeps us from falling. I'm praying for you and happy belated birthday!

Hey guys thanx for the support! I once again had to go the the hospital. I have a huge hematoma on the left side of my abdomen. So painful. Warning! Even if you feel good don't over do it!!! To make it worse I caught a cold. I'm not super woman like I assumed I was. I hated calling the Dr on a Sunday morning. Ohh well, healing time an extra 2 weeks

      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.
