This is very natural following any surgery. Not sure if it's related t anaesthetic or not. But just think of what you have been through leading up t the op. Constant guilt feelings every time you ate, frustration and feelings of failure every time you weighed or struggled t get comfortable in your clothes. If like me the rows between hubby every time he made a comment on my size, how I looked and what I eat, (which were daily). The decision to go ahead with this op is monumental regarding possible risks, wondering will it actually work, because nothing has worked before? My op is in two weeks, and I wonder should I go for it or should I just follow a diet. Other people will say ' why can't she just stick t a diet '. I don't know why I cant. It's so hard. I am goin ahead with surger, despite all th voices in my head saying different, and my sisters saying ' don't do it. If you've had the op three weeks r u starting t get out and do things. Maybe start exercising gently, have a maggage, d ur nails, treat yourself to something nice. Hope you feel better soon. Would love to follow your progress. I'm sure you will do well. Shows how strong you are by just going through this op. Not many people could xx

I may have been a little emotional before surgery but I have read that many get emotional before and after. I think it is very normal :)

I've been crying over everything. The preop diet has been rough! A sudden drop in calories, sugar, and carbs has not been kind. Im hungry and exhausted which apparently makes me incredibly emotional.

It's hormones. Totally normal, though frustrating. It will pass. :) hang in there.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
