Reporting back

Got home was doing ok but then started having some :( friend brought me some gas x . Downed 4 strips and called my doctor. Nurse told me I needed to take some Protein.so I'm on my second little 15 gms Protein drink..feeling some pain.took my loratab elixir.....hopefully it'll make me feel better.

Also I didn't have shoulder pain until today like 1 hr ago...and I thought I was gonna be a lucky one.

Gonna try to lay d down even tho standing up feels better.

So all of this is normal right?

Raul, you need to get out of bed and walk. The pain is gas. Walking dissipates the gas, and the shoulder pain will go away. Get up! Trust me.

Dave actually after surgery and all I was walking around at the hospital for a long time. I actually went to bed at 530 in the morning due discomfort...

Feels like gas sometimes but sometimes it just feels like pain and then I suffer from a little anxiety so that makes it even worse.

I just cut chicken broth and also I had my Protein drinks.

I'm not gonna lie my stomach looks bloated lol.haven't lay down at all today either as I want to walk this pain off :)

Sorry you're feeling poorly. They kept me on the anti-nausea meds at the hospital, forced me to sip Water like crazy, and walk laps around the hospital hallways every hour. I had very little accumulated gas, and it dissipated quickly. By Day three I was feeling a lot more back to normal.

Good luck!

Day.3

Yesterday night was a little rough.had some weird dreams but finally got to sleep qwerty around 3 ask with the help of the elixir,a heat.patch and a massage on my shoulder.

Went to see my nurse today.she says I'm healing pretty good and the shortmness of breath is most likely due gas and my anxiety.

I'm back home gonna rest some more and keep doing my walks

Hey Raul,

I am reading everyones comments and they all sound so familiar. Drink and walk as much as you can. I know its painful but it will get better. After 2 weeks of surgery, I wasnt drinking much and ended up in the ER because I was dehydrated!!! Try to rest also. Dont over work your body. Hope this helps. Keep in touch!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
