This is the first time I have posted anything as I am new :)  I had my surgery on December 9th and I'm feeling better everyday.
Gastric Bypass is a little like having a child. You can read about it, talk to people about it, and prepare for it but you never really know what it's like until you have the baby (or the surgery) I've had a lot of good experiences with the bariatric team and Dr. Glazer & Dr. Sohi.  The only thing that didn't agree with me was the optifast :( It made me sick and no matter what I did I just couldn't stand the taste!!! Thank god I never have to drink that again!

Since I started the optifast to date I have lost about 26lbs which I am happy about! I don't seem to be losing much of anything this week but I have read that this can happen betweeen 2-4 weeks after the surgery.  I hate the protein shakes so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also I am finding that I am more hungry this week?   Well I'm sure I will post more later!
