I may name my new stomach...lol



Recommended Posts

I am in the mushie stage of the post op diet. Last night I was eating refried Beans and had a couple of bites too many. OMG my stomach talked to me! There was this really loud growl --lol--unlike anything I had ever heard before!!! I interpreted it as my stomach saying .... Put that darn fork DOWN!!...lol. I think I am going to have to name my new friend.... any ideas?

How bout Lurch, like from the Adam's Family Show? He was big and ferocious, in a sweet kind of way.

You know it is funny but honestly I feel somedays like my stomach and I have bonded in a way. It is so silly but true!

Before my stomach was just an organ, sometimes despised for being hungry and wanting such large amounts of food. Then we had surgery. After surgery one day a coworker asked me how my stomach was that day. I thought a minute and said "It does it's thing, I do mine." Needless to say it was not a good stomach day.

I was reflecting last night on how we are a team now. I understand what my stomach wants (most times) and we no longer argue over big plates of Pasta or an extra cookie. I feel bonded to it. It is now the stomach I always wanted. It is no longer just an organ.

Dumb I know. But that is my feelings. No name though. I just call it tummy.

      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! 😞
