New Issues Now After Surgery



Recommended Posts

O I had my sleeve done on may 15th so I am 6 weeks out. From June 10-28 I was in the hospital! While I was in there they found out I have ulcerative colonists ( form of chrons I am told) it is a bowel issue. Swelling and ulcers in my bowel. Now I never had any issues before surgery! My surgery was done in Mexico and I didn't have much issues until then. However good news is I've lost 20kg! In 6weeks! That's over 40 pounds

Yes I am at home now. Finally. Thank you.

Yes it was scary but due to the small stomach now, we have trouble absorbing our food and nutrition, so issues like UC and others, come around because of that. One thing I did learn in the 18 days there was no matter what take liquid vitamins and always eat, drink Water. As now our bodies do not even aborsbe the water like it used to.

      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! 😞
