I made a discovery a few days ago and I wanted to share. I noticed that for months (before surgery), I was getting headaches daily. Most the time they would last most of the day - varying in degree. The other day I realized I haven't had much of a headache at all (the first a few days ago) since surgery. The only thing I can think that's changed is my eating habits. I guess all the crap I was eating was upsetting my body. It feels good to know what my changes aren't just affecting my size, they're also making me feel better!

That was something I noticed after banding as well. I used to get daily headaches, not bad ones just dull annoying headaches. I had to take tylenol more often than I liked. But headaches are rare for me now.

I used to also always wake up with an achy back and that no longer happens. And going up and down stairs without the aching and cracking in the knees and ankles is a wonderful improvement too. Like Willem said, you will discover many pleasant health improvements as time goes on.

      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! 😞
