Recommended Posts

I'm going to the grocery store tomorrow, what should I have in the house for my recovery?

The only thing I have is GasX.

I second the heating pad suggestion. It really got me through. I bought one that is made to hug the shoulders.....I think sunbeam makes it and my husband got it at cvs or Walgreens.

Sugar free/fat free pudding & Jello, fat free yogurt, broth, Protein powder, fat free milk, sugar free apple sauce, sugar free Popsicles.

If you can't find one of the u shaped hot pads to go over the shoulders then either get two hot pads or buy one, borrow one.

Gas x strips, liquid multi vitamin/ mineral.

      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! 😞
