i had a gastric bypass when i was 18 back in dec of 04. it took me 2 yrs to research it and i started wanting surgery when i was 16 and weighed over 240 pounds the day of my surgery i weighed 310 now i weigh 145..anyway to get back on track...the whole no food after surgery is actually a breeze cause u dont get hungry heck i still dont get hungry i have to make my self eat which in most cases is hard for me to do cause i have always been the type that when i make my self eat i get sick...yeah i do miss "sweets" sometimes but when i try to eat them i get super sick i rather go without than have a stomach ache and diaria. yeah i love being skinny now but i am finally almost 7 yrs out and ready to have a tummy tuck. and insurance paid for all but 300 $ of surgery. i was super lucky and it all reality it saved my kife.
