Surgery went well on the 14th. I'm home now working on getting in fluids, walking and resting. The only part of the experience I didn't like was having to be stuck 6 times to get an IV the second day. Other than that, it was ok. I only took pain meds once. All I have now is a little gas that gets better each day. So far so good.

I was sleeved May 7th and haven't had any issues. I was kept 1 extra day in the hospital because of not peeing (seriously). I did eventually pee and was released.

I'm on clears for 2 weeks which seems like a lot to me but I have medication I take mixed into some yogurt. I have my 1st follow up appointment with my surgeon and NUT on Monday.

Overall I'm feeling really good and I can't wait to eat something solid but I guess I have awhile to wait for that.

Oh yes I remember not being able to pee even when you wanted to. I pee same day but I was seeting in the bathroom for a while and I let the Water run and that actually help me. By the way I was sleeve on may 6 and I do want too eat some solids for example yesterday I made scramble eggs for my daughter and ohhhh god I felt the temtation to eat some and I did, and it hurt like crazy so I stop I only try I bite but thay was more than enought for me. I will continue to follow my diet. I am in full luquids as well.

I had my sleeve on May 14 and a small hernia repair to my esphoguas. . I was really tired the first day The second day my gas was unbearable, I find it hard to get on the liquids down in the time fr ame given. . I'm hoping it gets better soon everything I drink I feel it moving around very uncomfortable. .

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
