Yeah. Well made it through the first day of the final three. I emailed w the patient coordinator and she said that if you cheat on the three day cleanse, the Dr will be able to tell when he or she opens you up. Is this true?

@stickks she Is probably referring to the size of the liver and that has more to do with the pre op diet not the last 3 day cleanse. Actually since they are not opening up the intestines there is no way to tell, but this Dr has his reasons for making you do the 3 day cleanse. Not sure what that is cause some doc's don't require it. Really I think it is just the doc's preference.

We were in the hospital 2 nights. Very nice. Brush up on your spanish though. Nurses speak very little english. Im doing well, just some bloating from the surgery, and soreness. Havent been able to drink more than a few sips of Gatorade at a time without feeling full. I guess that is a good thing. We are staying two nights at the hotel, then flying back Sunday.

      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! 😞
