BrittneyE 60 Posted December 13, 2018 Hey everyone I am having my bypass this Monday the 10th. I am so excited and nervous. I don't have to do a preop diet, I am glad about this but also a little worried. What if I gain a few pounds will this increase the risk of surgery?please if any body else on here didn't have to do a preop diet how was your surgery?How are you feeling now?Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrittneyE 60 Posted December 13, 2018 Some pain but so much better today than the last two days in the hospital. I really wasn’t prepared for how much pain I’d be in but it does get better each day. My mother bought me a Spanx body suit Tuesday evening. I've been wearing it pretty much ever since. It has helped tremendously. Walking is easier with it on, and standing/sitting is easier too. This will all be worth it! My sister is 14mth post-op and has lost over 130lbs. I'm holding on to that!

Zebby67 43 Posted December 16, 2018 I'm having surgery in December and wondered if I had someone out there to go through this with?My day was Monday December 10th Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app 1 BrittneyE reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sisternewt@yahoo.com 102 Posted December 17, 2018 I am still waiting for insurance approval. Because of insurance - met my very high out of pocket this year, I need to have surgery before 12/31. My surgeon says “no worries”. This 90day waiting period my insurance requires has just caused me anxiety if the truth be told. I’m 64, older than most on this site, and weigh about 285. I am so excited about this next chapter of my life. 2 Zebby67 and BrittneyE reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still have it and though I can go without it I wear it especially when walking or extreme moving around. I will have to get the spanx suit. I know it will also help the stoma muscles.
