I had my surgery on November 23, 2012 in Plano at the new Victory Healthcare Center. What type of progress in terms of physical activity, sleeping on my side, driving, etc... Should I be experiencing at 6 days post op? And I didn't weigh the morning of surgery, so I can't pinpoint exactly how much weight I have lost until my 2 week post op. Anyone else have a laproscopic incision in your belly button?

I don't, they made 6 small incisions and they have pretty much gone away.The first two weeks i could sleep on anything but my side.I would sleep on the couch with my back to the couch and on my side.When i diff sleep in my bed again i woke up on my stomach and wad in alot of pain.Is funny because when i was overweighti could only sleep on my stomach and now 167lbs later i can't sleep on my stomach at all.

I assume you mean Oct. 23. If so that's when I had mine. I'm losing about .5-2 lbs per day. I sleep on my side and cannot sleep on my stomach so I guess everyone is different.

I start full liquids tomorrow. I'm excited for new flavors but also nervous about the taste, how my stomach will handle it and if I'll keep losing.

Thank you all for sharing your experiences! It is so difficult not knowing what to expect. Yes, surgery was 10/23/2012. Have lost 34 pounds, but seems to be slowing down. I am strictly following all of the rules, and I hope I do not stall at this point. Some foods I have added during this soft solid stage makes my stomach feel awful...don't know what to eat, so I end up back to Soup.< /p>

Was DR.Davidson from Presby Dallas? He did my surgery at Forest Park Dallas.

      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! 😞
