I need help guys today is my birthday and I am 10 days post op. Every year we went out to my favorite restaurant and a movie, but now I need a new tradition. This is my second birthday without my mom and it's already an emotional day I just want to do something special. Any suggestions?

Go to a salon with a couple of girl friends, get a massage, mani, pedi, etc. You'll feel like a million bucks and really enjoy a good movie! Happy birthday!

Well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Why not still go to the movies? Just take away the restaurant part. And what a great birthday gift you've already given yourself. Maybe you and the girls in the family can go get manicures and pedicures? Have a mini makeover day? No matter what, just think about how awesome your "New Year" is going to be. :)

Happy Birthday to both! My birthday is coming up soon and my family tradition is drinking and having their favorite dish made for them. But this year all I asked for was money or spa packages. Ooffa511 what part of New York are you from cause I live in manhattan.

First, Happy Birthday!!! I agree with the ladies--do something for YOU-mani, pedi, facial sounds perfect. This journey you are on should be all about YOU taking care of YOU!!!

I lost my mother in October and understand how difficult it can be doing those things without her.

I agree with the others; do something for YOU for this birthday. A pedicure is a wonderful indulgence and will make you feel SO much better. I'm sorry about your mother. I know how hard that one is, especially when you're early post-op. You're in the same spot I was last year, having a birthday while still on liquids. Just know that your mother is an angel in heaven who is watching over you and she IS proud of you, even more so because you're making such positive changes in your life!

Happy Birthday to you! :)

Happy birthday. Do something that is all you. My birthday is coming up soon and I told my husband I want to go bike riding along the lake front. Do they have carriage rides near by, or how about a boat ride. Depends where your at.

      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! 😞
