Thank you everyone yesterday was tough. I wanted to cry. I remember going into the operating room and they put the mask on me and I just kep yelling I can't breathe!!! Then promptly spit up something then next thing I know im in the recovery bay yelling help me lol. Crazy. Got some sleep' date=' walked, got a few coughs and burps out. My dad felt it was a good idea to bring chili cheese frites to my room to eat.... My mom gave him the ultimate death glare lol so he ate in the mini living room. Feeling better today doesn't hurt as much to get up and use the restroom like it did yesterday. I loathe the breathing treatments but it's really important I do it. I'll keep everyone posted, back to bed I go!

I think I go home tomorrow or Friday. I'm not a happy camper right now. Everytime I try to sleep someone is coming in to mess with me. Then I finally fall asleep and it was time for a bath and walking. I'm so frustrated.

Pain isn't so bad, they took me off morphine and upgraded me to the elixir which last longer. Only pain I have is the gas pain, trying to get rid of that by walking though. Other than that I'm doing ok.

Pain up until now has been about a 3-6 It's not like a oh god this sucks kind of pain. It's more of a I'm uncomfortable please give me something type pain and it clears up. Im not gonna lie, first day i was like WHY?!? I was just so uncomfortable but second day my mom and nurse said i looked a lot better.Thank you everyone for the support. And liberated yes David is my night nurse, he's a talker but a very nice man. He brings me the goods when I need more lol. They are sending me home with a prescription for the elixir so I'm happy about that.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
