Vacationing All Inclusive Post RNY



Recommended Posts

I am 4 months post of RNY gastric bypass. I have healed well, and I am getting all of my Protein in. I am considering going on an all inclusive vacation with some girlfriends next month to Punta Cana in the Domincan Republic. I have had alcoholic beverages since surgery, but I sip. My concern is over the food and drinks. Ideally, I do plan on drinking but I am concerned everything will be sugary. I get dumping with high sugar. I'm sure I can be choosy with the foods.

Has anyone else done all inclusive post RNY, and if so what do I need to know? What issues did you encounter? What did you drink? Thanks!

Your safest drinks will be wine, or alcohol with a sf mixer, like vodka & soda w/lime twist or whiskey & Water.

^^Agreed. Also, I always, always mix my own drink. I'll order a shot of vodka and a glass of whatever I'm mixing it with. I usually start out with a half of a shot. There's nothing worse than getting drunk when you are just trying to "feel good" or getting drunk in an environment that isn't appropriate like a nice dinner.

      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.

      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!
