Recommended Posts

I had my 1st 2 of 3 appointments (medical and nutrition next is excersize physiology on Dec 1)

I've gone to 1 of the 2 required monthly meetings.

I'm scheduled in the next 6week course starting November 14

Got my blood work done

And going for upper gi tomorrow.

So if this goes super slow it certainly won't because I don't have my **** together lol.

No, I'm thinking it's probably similar to the crap they make you drink before a abdominal catscan? So friggen nasty lol I'm just hoping I don't gag.

Mine was about a cup of barium. Thick white chalky stuff. Before that was a tiny amount of Alka seltzer stuff. They make you roll around on the table to coat your stomach. It wasn't horrible but glad it's over. I hope they told you the barium goes out the same color it went in LOL. so don't be shocked when you poop!

It was really neat watching my stomach on the screen. Not sure if you were able to see yours, but it was cool.

      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! 😞
