Drink some hot peppermint tea, take simethicone, and KEEP MOVING. That helped me with the gas pains.

GOOD LUCK

Walking is the best. You can hold a small pillow against you stomach if it helps for no movement. I walked every night up and down my drive way in my PJ's after dark with my pillow and Gas X

I'm 8 days banded and the pains from the gas are still killing me. Heating pad and walking are the only things that seem to help at all. Been sleeping in a recliner and last night was the first night I could sleep in my bed. It was heavenly! So I guess it's getting better. Can't wait for this air to get out of me!!! :)

      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! 😞
