Upcoming sleevers please sneak u some gas x strips in the hospital. The pain from gas is the only thing I'm feeling. I am walking but my heart rate is low and I'm weak...pray for me.

I haven't been sleeved yet (11/12 is my date). so are you saying that you wish someone brought in gas x strips? Does the hospital not want to give you any? After today, it will probably start to get better each and every day. I'll send good wishes your way! Just think, the worst is over and it can only get better from here!

Rough is NOT accurate enough when describing the gas pain...this pain is a b***h....I'm sorry...especially when u swallow omg....no words for this.

Move as much as you can... there is really not much else I can suggest... I know it is a pain - just focus on the positives

you will be losing weight for the first time in a long time... this is going to change every aspect of your life... you will feel better about yourself and in general, overall... life will be easier in so many ways

I am 8 weeks out and do not remember ever feeling as good as I do right this minute...

I am jogging in my first ever 5K on October 27... YOU CAN DO THIS

I know you are weak and in pain, but get up and move... hang your legs over the side of the bed and kick them... wave your arms... walk laps around the room... move move move... keep your eyes focused on the goal of living and feeling better, and get up!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
