Good Morning sleevers !

Today is my first week and I'm 18lbs down ! Extremely excited. That's all the motivation I need to continue pushing forward . First few days were extremely hard , but that feeling of trying to eat even if it's little it's painful so it stops you right in your tracks . Week 2 lets gooooo! ☺

Day 5, all well except every sip of Protein or Jello comes right out, every time I pass gas something comes out. Should I be concern?

Don't be jealous. When is the last time you lost 5 pounds in 8 days? :) You'll get there. Just follow your doctor's recommendations. :)

I'm 2weeks out and I have to tell u at first I felt no hunger at all but I started on mushy foods now and all though I don't feel hunger pains like I use to my body tells me when I'm Hungary I feel a little shaky and jittery but no hunger pains at all so don't worrie.. Now head hunger has kicked in a few times and I found myself lookin in the fridge and pantry but then I realized I just ate and was able to control it.. Don't stress it you'll do fine it is different for everyone I found ice chips were my best friend in the hospital but some people say they can't drink anything cold! I love ice in everything I drink so I'm glad I choose the ice chips because I think that set my tummy up to be able to handle cold drinking.. Idk I might me nuts..lol.. But unr right about preparing your mind I did the same thing I read everything I could get my hands on an all the post and people on here helps a lot don't be afraid to ask questions everyone on this site is always there to lend a helping hand.. Now 2wks out I don't have any trouble drinking and getting my fluids in now Protein that's another story the shakes I loved before I can't stomach now! But I'm working on it just remember to be cautious and go slow and u will do fine... Good luck and keep us posted on your date so we can all send a little prayer up for u on that date...

      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! 😞
