Voices Of Reason/experience. I Am 12 Days Post Op.



Recommended Posts

Hello all

long time lurker first time poster.

I am now as the title says 12 Days post op and feel fabulous. I am in no pain, no incision pain, walking generally back to normal and have been so for the past 5 days.

I am really concerned/becomming obessed with seeking answers because I can drink a glass of Water no problem, I had two scrambled eggs with cottage cheese for Breakfast no problem, tube of yogure 125ml for lunch and drink in between. I think I feel like i have no restriction and am worried i will fail at weightloss because i will pig out like i did pre sleeve.

I dont want to be fat any more, i thought i would get slim with this tool but i didnt think after reading everyone elses journey that it would feel like normal just less hungry.

I have checked with my surgeon and he said everyone heals different and wait till i am on solid or mushy foods but stick with the plan.

I am on pureed at the moment.

can i actually fail? do people not loose weight. I will be totally devosated - i just cant cope thinking its not going to work.

My dietician asked for a 3 day food diary but said it was unusual that I could easily eat two eggs without discomfort or nausia and it scared me. Please dont scare me I am very anxious at the moment.

I feel the same way. I'm 7 day post op. I can drink with no problem. I've started eating mashed potatoes with no problems, and worst of all, I'm starving!!!! I almost feel like I didn't really have surgery. I'm feeling all the same things you are feeling. I'm Scared this sleeve isn't going to work

      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! 😞
