I was a little sore the first day I came home from surgery, but if you do a lot of walking, I promise you that will help. I do need to ask someone that has had the surgery if anyone's calve's were hurting? The only soreness on me is my calve's. I stiffen up especially when i get up in the morning!! I am so excited to have had the surgery and can't wait to see the end results!!! Thank You

Could it be from not eating carbs for the past so many weeks? I know when I did Atkins I would get leg cramps a lot. I think it's because you are low in potassium. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I was also banded May 9th. I have felt pretty good. I am sore in my stomach and expected to be but any pain I've had has been caused by the gas that was put in me for surgery. I've walked alot and rocked in rocking chair helps too.

I've been banded now for 4 days and last night me and my husband walked around our house for about an hour!! It felt wonderful!!! Then I woke up this morning with no gas pains at all. I am gonna continue walking twice a day, once in the morning and a lot in the evening!! I really think this is gonna work. Still no appetite, but do take my Vitamins and drink my shakes, and only Clear Liquids for now. Everyday is getting easier and easier!! Can't wait to see the results in a few months!!! :)

      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! 😞
