I wish you the best. An easy recovery & a tool that helps manage your weight for a lifetime. Please keep everyone posted. If things are different than you expected, please ask the experts b/c if you have a question so do others. Will be looking for updates. I will be following you shortly as my last doctor's appointment is 9-10 & then everything will be sent to my insurance company for approval. Take care, Jan

Good luck! :) The day of the surgery I felt like I was on top of the world. I was very loopy on the anesthesia and giggling a lot lol. I wanted to get up and walk around, and my aunt had to hold my hand because she was afraid I was going to fall over. The day after surgery I wasn't feeling so hot- lots of nausea and soreness. By the third day, though, I felt better.

Like all things, it'll be different for everyone. I feel pretty good now physically- just a little pressure on my chest from trying to sip this Protein stuff too much. The gas pain is almost completely gone. I'm 4 days out from surgery.

You'll be just fine!

thank you ladies. i am in my room now. i am in pain but they are trying to keep on top of it so that im not hurting. the feeling is kinda like haveing the stomach flu. i hate that feeling, but it is better then i expected. i already peed and walked 4 laps around the hospital floor, and it was only 2 hours after my surgery! my surgery was over before 6pm, and it is only 815pm now! i hope my recovery goes well.

      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! 😞
