Well I am one week out today. I go tomorrow to have my staples removed. The first 48 hours were the hardest. And I have spent this week trying to get the hang of SIPPPING fluids. Somehow I missed this information in all of the research I did. I was up 10 lbs when I got out of surgery so this week has been a wash as far as weightloss goes.

I move into full liquids for the next 2 weeks. This is definitely a learning experience and if possible I think it helps to have someone at home help you the first few days. There is quite a regimen of crushing pills, tracking Fluid intake, and breathing exercises. Not to mention walking which seems to be the best advice for faster recovery.

Ok, I wish all a successful week! May God bless and keep you in His most capable hands.

Where are you getting staples removed from? Your skin or your new stomach?

      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! 😞
