PerezL84 66 Posted July 29, 2020 Hello Everyone, I just got my surgery date set for August 26th, 2020. I am having the Gastric Bypass surgery. I am feeling a bit nervous but I excited at the same time. I am new here so any tips or general chats are welcome [emoji2]Hey there...mine is on the 17th. I am doing a revision from the sleeve to bypass. Have you started on your preop diet yet? What state or city are you from. I am kinda nervous here.

I have been eating less for about a week and a half so that hopefully it I won’t be so hungry when doing the diet. I can eat one meal a day. 150g of Protein and no more than 30g of carbs is my goal. I am from Atlanta, GA. Where are you from? We can be nervous together 😂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I had the sleeve done, I couldn't stand powder Protein Shakes since they got got me nauseous. I end up on Isopure premade Protein Drink. It worked out just fine and they are I find them to be tasty. Also, if you do not mind me asking whats you current weight, height, and BMI...and what is you targeted weight?

Sent from my SM-N975U using BariatricPal mobile appAwesome I will have to look into the Isopure because I really don’t like power Protein either. My Current weight is 306lbs, Height 5’3 BMI is 54. My goal weight is 160lbs. Why are you choosing bypass now above the sleeve? 1 PerezL84 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suffered from GERD and the sleeve was dialted causing me to eat more. Now I am doing the RYN Bypass.
