Let me start by saying, this was the best option for me. I have crazy food allergies that prevented me from dieting( all fruits/veggies/seafood and soy). Exercising was difficult due to asthma and osteoporosis in both knees. This surgery, I believe, saved my life. I'm getting married April 21, 2013 and now I can look forward to dress shopping :)

I have Dr. Suh and he's the best! No pain from the surgery itself (except gas pains).

It's a little over two weeks post op and I'm down 25lbs!

I'm on soft foods, but missing things like pizza and burgers and oh god steak!

Everyday gets easier, so don't loose hope!

Thanks! I wasn't sure about posting anything but I figured if what I post helps just one person, then I'd be satisfied.

(actually it's osteoarthritis, stupid spell check lol)

      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! 😞
