I had my surgery on Tuesday at noon and came home yesterday at 2pm. I'm not going to lie, it was and still is very painful. It turns out I had a Hiatal Hernia that the doctor repaired as well. I seriously cannot remember hardly anything at all from the day surgery bay and until I arrived in my room later in the day. Throughout that evening I pretty much stayed on the morphine and finally got up and walked late Wednesday. It's been difficult to find a good sleeping position but soon enough that will change. All in all, I am glad the surgery is over and now I can begin my weight loss journey!

I had a hiatal hernia too that had to be repaired. I was out of it for the first two days and it took me a week before I started feeling better. I just had my surgery on August 8th and I'm feeling 100% better today. Hang in there, it gets a lot better in a short amount of time.

      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! 😞
