2 week visit - I am happy



Recommended Posts

Had my two week visit with my surgeon's office today. Dr. Nick in Plano TX did my surgery on 2/22. I am now down 24 pounds (including the pre-op diet). I have also lost a total of 18". I spent last weekend organizing my clothes closet and packing boxes of stuff I have shrunk out of. Goodbye size 24W and 3X's. The thrift shop that supports a woman's shelter has gotten those clothes. I think they are going to see a lot of me this year!

I feel wonderful. Haven't had to use any pain meds or nausea medicine since I got out of the hospital. I am going back to work half time next week, then back full time the next week. (My day's are 12 hour days, so I'm not quite ready for those yet).

Can't say enough great things about Dr. Nick - I would recommend him to anyone considering the sleeve in this area.

      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! 😞
