Ditto! It's a long battle and being positive is what I try and be. I did not go through all this not to be successful.

I used a heating pad on my shoulder to help with some of the gas. You'll be feeling better in no time! I was back to work about 10-12 days after my surgery and I was feeling much better then. It'll be worth it in the long run! Good luck! We're here if you need us! :)

Hang in there! Sip on Protein shakes to get as much Protein in as you can. Walk, walk, walk. I did laps up and down my hallway, it helps with the gas.

Stay on top of the pain with the pain meds, take them when your pain is level 3. Don't wait. The heating pad was my best friend.

Feel better soon!!

      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! 😞
