Any October 2021 Surgeries?

[Tupelo 23]

2 days post op and feeling so blah! Nothing sounds good or interesting to do, see or eat. No trouble with drinking my shakes and Water so that’s a blessing I guess. Not sure why I’m feeling so down.

Hi

I was exactly the same. I had my bypass on October 6th. Feeling better now I'm on puree.

Stay strong and keep going it will get better.

I had gastric bypass on October 5 2021

I go for my 4 week check up on Monday and I am not really nervous but still sore on the left side.

It is def an adjustment with eating or should I say not eating. I have not been hungry at all until today. I had watermelon today not much but it seems so far to be tolerating just fine. I will see in the next few hours has anyone had this

Hi I had the gastric sleeve surgery October 21, I just got home. And my belly hurts. I do not want to take the oxy, I am already on Famotidine. I was searching the internet to see if taking Mylanta was ok.

Wow Mammysm, you’ve been through it all! You are the first person I know that is having SADI! I have a friend who is almost ready for the DS.

I haven’t been great with my liquid diet but I’m hoping my lower BMI will help it. My old house (which we care for meticulously) decided to act up this week (blown outlet and for extra fun a HEATING OIL LEAK INSIDE THE HOUSE!)

This is my last try. My RNY is scheduled and I’m 62 and so tired of not being able to move without being in pain.

you at least know how to do this so remember you can! Third time’s the charm, remember? 💗

Its very hard to stick to the liquid diet...I haven't got too many days left. Had Covid test today...got to be at hospital at 6am on Monday....I'm so not a morning person but for this I will get up...lol.

I wish you the very best with this journey and it all works out with you ...just remember "Nothing Tastes As Good As Thin Feels" they used to say this at Weight Watchers...and "You Bite-You Write" JS

Write anytime....I will reply as soon. As I find it sometimes it takes me awhile to find stuff.

It gets easier post op… but harder in other ways. Soon you’ll be grateful to be able to get liquid down real slow!

[Mammysm 10]

Yes I'm scheduled for October 25th 2021, for the Sadi.

I had my Covid test today, at the end of my 2 week liquid diet, no fun...but surveying it. I am in Maine, I am having the surgery at Maine General in Augusta, Maine...if anyone else is in that area or elsewhere pls feel free to keep in touch. Donna

My surgery is happening at 2:45 on Monday — I wish mine was that early! They even told me not to bring a suitcase I’ll be leaving in 24 hours! I wish you only the best, too and a speedy recovery! Yes that’s the best WW quote. I lost 50 lbs with them and that’s it. Now I’ll lose the rest so I can walk and do things again. I’m only 62 not 100! Message me next week!

Hi everyone! My surgery is scheduled oct. 26! I’m optimistic that the sleeve will help me get control not only for weight loss, but the comorbities that helped me qualify! Good health to all!

Hi all! I am so thrilled to see so many replies to this topic! I got so busy pre-op that I haven't been able to post until now. I hope everyone who has already had their surgery is doing great and wish everyone good luck who will have the surgery soon!

I had my surgery on October 11th. Everything went very well. I stayed in the hospital overnight. My only complaint was on the first night when I was experiencing pain where the incisions were (now the incisions are just unbearably itchy because they are healing). I wasn't hungry AT ALL for the first week or so and had a hard time getting all my Water and Protein in. This last week, however, I have been a bit hungrier and have been making some protein smoothies which have been really good for me I think.

I just posted this in a separate thread, but I am terribly worried because I am feeling no constriction at all during this liquid phase. I start soft/pureed foods on 10/25 so I'm hoping I'll feel the constriction. Also experiencing what I think is head hunger rather than real hunger.

Again, wish everyone the best!
