6 more days!
I'm also confuse like u. Did u ever try a drug called dinitrophenol dnp which body builders use to lose fat. It's mechanism of action is that it increases metabolism by 50 per or more for eg u resting metabolic rate is 1500 calories , the half of 1500 is 750, so u will burn these 750 calories by just sitting and all from fat. So u can expect to lose 1 1b of fat per day. In these surgeries like gastric bypass u lose most muscle and little bit, fat unless u have a surgery which have very short common channel u can not lose that much fat on proximal gastric bypass.DNP or dinitrophenol was a very popular drug in 1930s but it was banned because it caused cataracts among some people about 0.1 per of population. I was also confuse between surgery and dinitrophenol. Search on the internet there were studies done on 3 obese people with dnp dosages of 250 to 125 mg all of them lost 100 of pounds in 10 months with dnp, it is a powerful drug but when use incorrectly it can be lethal. Because it has a very small thereputic index. I also wanted to ask u if u have choosed distal bypass u can have bathroom issues which would interrupt on ur life. Search dnp do u want to lose muscle or fat there is a big difference between weight loss and fat loss.
Congratulations! My surgery won't be until the end of the year so I'm eager to hear how it went for you. I was initially supposed to have the sleeve but because of my reflux he thinks it's best to the RNY. I was nervous/scared about this but I'm starting to feel better because I've spoken to a few people and some at my surgeons who have just had it and they are doing great! I wish you the best!
