Bariatric Surgery Surgical Procedure Review Summary

The Bariatric Surgery "is not a miracle cure," according to NancyL. While Bariatric Surgery has been a proven way to lose weight fast, it requires you to follow a strict diet that is high in protein to prevent future health problems. It limits the types of food and how much you can eat, but over time you can stretch your stomach out and regain the weight. The bottom line is you will still have to exercise, watch what you eat and use self-control after having Bariatric surgery.

In November of 2007 it will be 5 years since I had Gastric Bypass Surgery. Of course in the beginning it took quite a bit of getting used to, I could only eat 1 scrambled egg and I was stuffed. But the weight was falling off rapidly and I was focused on that. Then I didscovered that I could… read full review »

i had a roux-en-y gastric bypass over 5 years ago.  i have maintained a weight loss of 140 pounds.  it was extremely painful at first as with any surgery.  it was my no means easy.  i got sick at first very often til i learnt how to eat again. there was 4 week of a blenderized diet with no food being bigger than half a pea.  ive had to relearn how to eat and cook.  its a life change not quick fix but is a miracle.  i cannot eat anything high in fat or sugar or anything dairy.  if i eat starches i need to eat protein with it or it bothers me as well does… read full review »

I had the lap band surgery in November 2005 and have lost a total of 70 lbs. Although this is not as much as I had hoped for it is still enough to make me feel better physically and that is good. It took some getting used to for me because I now have protein  shakes for breakfast every day...for the rest of my life. I am still trying to lose more but at this point even if I never do I am still happy with my current success. It still takes great control to make sure you do not eat the things you are not supposed to or fall back into old habits like eating when you are not even… read full review »

I have spoken to many people who have had this surgery. Some of their doctors were awesome and informed them accordingly. Others have lost hair because they were not informed the daily protein intake must remain high(in regulated amounts) otherwise hair etc. will be lost. Please, ask your doctors the absolute musts that have to be changed after your surgery. Your intake of food lessens but you have supplements you must take. ex: B12  and your absorption is lessened therefore you are on liquid alot (at first) for your nutrition. You still have to maintain with protein (just not as… read full review »
