My advice is try to keep your mind occupied today...... I bought myself an adult coloring book that kept me busy the day before my surgery. I think it really helped to keep me from getting so nervous. You'll do fine tomorrow and congrats!!! My surgery was back on May 16th and as far as I'm concerned it's the best thing I've ever done for myself!!!

Tomorrow is my week since surgery and it's been really hard. Stay up on ur pain medicines and anti nausea meds after surgery. I didn't and couldn't keep anything down and was forced to stay another night. I slept most of the time in there and so I also couldn't keep up on my fluids. So try ur best at that too. Good luck!!

Don't be disappointed if recovery is more difficult than expected. It's not easy....but it will be worth it! I'm 6 days post op. It's been a little rough some days and easier other days. The day after surgery was the most difficult for me. Don't be afraid to accept or ask for help. Good luck!!!

      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?

      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! 😞
