I'm doing well. Stomach pain isn't too bad today. I'm able to move around more. I'm still sipping on crystal light and Water. I don't have an urge to drink or eat anything but SF popsicles. I can't wait until the gas pains subside. That's the worst of it all. I'm on Lortab for the pain and it really helps a lot, although it does put me to sleep. I appreciate your kind words and I'm wishing you all much success during your journey. I will keep you all posted;-) If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

I was sleeved on the 23rd. I do feel sore when the loritab wears off. I have been taking it every 4 hours. I may need a refill. I have no appetite so broth and crystal light are working great. I am a little concerned that i am coughing up some junk. Hope things continue to get better.

Congrats on your surgery. Hope you have a great recovery too!

Chelle...that cough could be a side effect of the pain medicine...some people are sensitive to them. I am. If you call the doctor and report it, they might change it for you. I know coughing isn't fun, and then to have a cough and surgery is not at all fun to overcome.

Well I was just kicking a cold last week and now it seems like I may have relapsed. Watching for a fever. My son just went to get me a thermometer. Thank you for telling me about the possibility of pain meds causing it.

      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! 😞
