Four years ago, I changed my life for the better. I had gastric bypass surgery when my weight hit 300 pounds. I had tried every diet on the planet and nothing seemed to work for me. My cardiologist was concerned and finally told me he felt the bypass surgery was the only option left, since nothing else... review »

I had gastric bypass surgery 6 years ago and I have been sick ever since. According to another surgeon my surgery was not done correctly, but due to my age and health, it would be too risky to do it again. I have been throwing up nearly everyday for six years now. About the only time I can keep any ...

I am so happy I had this surgery. I would recommend it to anyone looking to lose wt. I must say its not a QUICK fix. And you must do some life changing eating habits.

I can tolerate sweets which I really wish I couldn't but I do try to watch the sweets I do eat. I am over 6 yrs out and I had a baby 3 yrs after I had my surg. And like everyone else baby wt is a struggle.

Both were worth it!!!

Gastric Bypass surgery has saved my life. I really believe that it had not been for the surgery that I would not be alive today. I have a great surgeon and staff. Although at times it has been hard, I would not go back and change what has been done!

I personally have not had this surgery.  However, I do know some people that have had this kind of surgery.  One woman that I know that had this surgery has had her life turned completely upside down as a result of this medical procedure.

 

To begin with, she was not given a specific list of any fruits, vegetables, or meats that she could or couldn't eat.  It was a very slow, painful process of trial and error.  Before the surgery, my friend could eat a salad whenever she wanted.  Now, she can't eat a salad.  Eating this gives her extreme constipation and then gas.

 

My friend can eat chicken,...

I had RNY 10 months ago today and have lost over 100 lbs. Having gastric bypass was the BEST thing I have ever done for myself and for my family. I was so big before that I couldn't even sit in a resturant booth and now I can! The morning of my surgery I weighed 337 lbs and I didn't have a life. Now I am a new person.
