When I asked my doctor that he said "Not here, please!" LOL And then explained anytime in which it was not painful to do so...TMI here perhaps, but I believe we waited about 1-1/2 weeks.

My DH asked the same question! :lol: I jokingly told him 6 weeks (just like after my c-sections)! He was in shock! LOL! I am so mean.:thumbup:

My husband thought it would be six weeks too....and he was pouting (it has been a a horrible year with all the band problems and the emergency c section)...... then I jumped him about an hour after we got the kids in bed the night I got home!

Still alive at this moment!

I really can't remember how long I waited. I am sure it wasn't long because as soon as I got home from the hospital, I felt normal and really could not even tell I had surgery. I am betting it was the night I got home from the airport or the next morning.

I told my husband a year :-) I'm really mean. But he figured out I was kidding.

Oh Rosey -- you're so mean... but I love it! Might make him feel like 6 weeks isn't all that long eh?

      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! 😞
