Hello, I'm 1 month post op



Recommended Posts

Hi, my name is Roxanne and I am from North Dakota. I am one month post op. I had my first fill today. I found out about this site from the nutritional counselor at the clinic. I am looking for other 43 year old females who are also at the same stage as I am. Would like to start a raport with you. So far things have gone well for me. I have managed to achieve one of my goals already. I am no longer taking prescription meds for high bp. I started with a beginning weight of 265lbs. I have lost 22lbs to date. I do have a great support at home since my husband did the surgery 2 years ago. He has lost 143lbs so far!! Good luck to each and every one of you!:wub:

Hey Roxi Congrats! I will be one month post-op on tomorrow and I will get a fill in the afternoon. I am sooooo excited my new way of life.

*How have you been doing since your fill?

*What were your instruction before your fill?

I called my doc office today and they told me to eat a light lunch and not to eat 3 to 4 hrs before my fill and to be on liquids for a couple of days then pureed for a few more then solids.

So I am awaiting tomorrow's excitement.

I just don't like throwing up so I hope that will not be a problem for me.

Well, I will go for now but I did want to say that sorry I am not 43 but I wanted to comment on your post LOL!

Good Luck

Hi, I'm also 1 month post op. Fill scheduled for 10/24. How do you feel? I feel like I can eat anything right now. I'm just waiting to feel that tightness everyone talks about. I've lost 21lbs but at times I feel like I'm starving. Best of luck to you!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
