Hey Vicki,

I had my surgery done on monday as well at 3:30pm.

Starving huh? Since Sunday night at 6pm, I had 2 small taste of yogart. And its Wednesday. Everything that I try to eat or drink I vomite. Including pain meds. I can NOT have any meds at all. Maybe thats why I feel so damn sick.

I went into surgery at 214.5 lbs, came home at 221 lbs, woke up this morning at 211 lbs.

Also, my surgeon found a hernia. He had to stich up. Maybe that could be it as well.

Must be me having bad side effects.

Thanks for your reply.

I spent the first two-three days after surgery vomiting. After that, I'd get an isolated dry heave 3-4 times a week for the first month or so. All I can tell you is to hang in there, and it will go away.

I too had dry heaves the first couple of days -- it was terrible and hurt so much -- but it will go away -- after the first couple of weeks, you'll start to feel normal again :) Hang in there :)

I had dry heaves while I was on the Morphine in the hospital but once I left the hospital I stoped taking pain meds . Maybe it is your meds doing it? Sorry you feel so bad hope you get to feeling better soon. It really does get better every day

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
