I was banded on Friday and wrote a post about it but it got deleted. I was supposed to be banded on Wednesday but they rescheduled because of the snow storm. When I showed up on Friday they were running about 2 hrs late and both of these things made me wonder if it was a 'sign' to reconsider. To top it off, my hospital Bracelet was missing the little nub on it so they had to make a new one. I felt like there was all these things saying don't do it. Surgery day went pretty normal everyone was nice and I was only at the hospital for 2 hours or so after I woke up. My scars look small but there is a lot of glue so it is hard to tell right now. When I got home I was +7 pounds but 2.5 days later all of that is gone again. To be honest I felt pretty awful, the pain meds were decent but they gave me just enough for 2 or 3 days. I have barely eaten, most notable meals were broth, Vitamin Water, Jello and applesauce (probably shouldn't have but needed some energy) I think most of the reason I feel so terrible is I have no energy. The pain is going away, the gas is going away and overall I feel better every day. I havent been hungry at all but definitely feel like I have no energy, some pain and some nausea. Looking forward to feeling better and getting my life back on track. Still feeling unsure if this was right for me or not but what's done is done. I can promise you I'll be losing weight and this won't all be for nothing, that's for sure.

      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! 😞
