The first couple days are the worst. But it will get better so fast that you'll forget how bad it sucked. I'm only 4 weeks out, so I remember.

Why are you trying not to take the pain meds? I was shameless about it for the first week.

The hydrocodone made me loopy, but I didn't have anywhere to go and it made me a lot more comfortable. There's no trophy for being strong.

But I know everyone has different views on narcotics.

Keep your chin up!! It gets so much better in a day or two!!

Today was my first full day home as well. I've been in serious pain for most of the day. I've pressed on and walked about 1700 steps, not much but something. I feel pretty good right now but I am on the pain killers so that has something to do with it. I haven't been hungry, but have been eating on schedule when I'm not asleep. Keep up the good work everyone.

      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! 😞
