How Would I Know Everything Is Still Going Okay



Recommended Posts

Did my band slip or something? im not feeling bad or anything! im still kindof getting full off my small meals! what do yall think?! n when i rub my fingers cross my stomach i can feel it there but i just need some help understanding if this is normal or what?!

My guess would be that your body is simply healing. The swelling is going down, so there is not as much pressure when you take a deep breath. If it's a big concern for you, call your dr.

You sound completely normal. That is your port that you are feeling with your hand.

      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! 😞
