November 3rd Dr. Kelly



Recommended Posts

Got the "official" date! Plane tickets booked, and hotel for the first night down there. I don't think I want to spend 3 nights in the hospital....even though it's free.

Excited, nervous, and a little bit scared.....but I've been waiting for what feels like forever to get up the nerve to book the surgery. CAN'T WAIT!!!

Just a quick update... had my surgery in the evening of Nov. 3rd. I don't really remember a whole lot, other than switching beds a few times before getting into the operating room. I woke up in my room, and fell back asleep for a few more hours...i think...then woke up to painful gas and naseous. They gave me some meds for pain and naseous and I slept again for the rest of the night. I've been very tired since the surgery and still have bouts of naseous. I have gotten sick a few times, and that was kind of scary.....but I'm ready to go home. The after care has been good, and I've met with Dr Kelly a few times since the surgery. I'm pretty tired right now but I'll post more later. Heading home tommorrow :)

Back home and so happy to be here! Doing much better today. I've been finding that warm tea feels really good and doesn't make me bloated or give me heart burn. All i can say is that i'm so happy to be home, even though there's snow on the ground.....can't wait to crack open a can of chicken broth tomorrow and stay in my pjs and sip away!!!!

      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! 😞
