After a tough couple of days, it’s almost 10:00am on Monday morning and everything is okay.
Stomach issues are normal for gastric bypass patients. At least that’s what everyone tells me. Every once in a while I am going to zig when I shoulda zagged and my new little redesigned mini stomach is going to let me know about it. That’s all the last couple of days were.
I’m on vacation today and tomorrow so I slept about an hour late (ahhhh). When I went to sleep yesterday is was feeling okay. No pain but maybe a little gassy discomfort. I didn’t hit my water or protein goals until maybe half an hour before I fell asleep. I feel good about that. I thought I was going to fail on both counts. I did miss my exercise goal and I’m upset with myself over that, but given the circumstances it’s okay.
This morning I woke up without any pain or issues. I was a little nervous that something might crop up, but I did my 30 minute fake jogging in the cellar (pronounced “yogging” with a soft “j”) and I ate a normal protein bar breakfast. It’s been a couple of hours and all is still well.
Is that optimism I’m feeling? Maybe. It might just be me wanting a grilled hamburger and fries for lunch. it could be either one

Thank you for sharing your experiences with gastric bypass surgery. While I’m not a fellow gastric bypass patient, I can imagine how challenging it must be to navigate through the post-surgery days. It’s great to hear that despite the tough moments, you’re feeling optimistic and things are looking up on this Monday morning. Taking it one step at a time, especially when it comes to water, protein goals, and exercise, is commendable. Enjoy your vacation and that grilled hamburger and fries for lunch! Wishing you a smooth recovery and continued progress on your health journey.
