Ok so I hope I don't gross anyone out this pic was taken 2-2 in the hospital. I have now lost all modesty and nothing grosses me out lol.

For the record this is not commen. This is the incision my stomach was removed through. It's an infection caused by that. A very small percentage get this.

I had extreme pain constantly from day one. I had a one week follow up and I was told I looked fine. I was like how am I fine??? I see people up and ready to go in a week. 4 days later I step into the shower and stuff started shooting out of my incision. My belly truly looked ok at the drs visit.

Sorry you have to go through that. Hang in there it will get better. :)

Infection in the incision that the stomach is removed through. It has to heal open so it has to be repacked twice a day. It got worse so I had to go back to the hospital on continuous iv antibiotics. A nurse comes now twice a day for a short period of time. The hole was 3" deep it is now 2.5 sad part is all my other incisions are healed.

Wow so sorry for that. I had surgery once and had wound care like that that was so painful getting packed daily.

But through all of this have you lost anything???

So I weighed myself this morning, and didn't believe the scale, so I stepped on it again. I really can't believe it. I was sleeved on 1/29 and weighed in at 311.2 and this morning my scale says 277.8....wow is all I can say.

      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! 😞
