Hola from TJ 3 days post op with Dr Kelly pics



Recommended Posts

Thank you so much. I swear I barely recognize the girl in the 2-3 day post op pics. I still have another 100 to go, but this surgery is such a blessing! God bless the gastric sleeve and Dr Kelly, and the other surgeons who make this possible. I tried for 2 1/2 years before deciding on surgery.

Thank you so much! I'm really loving this! I'm hoping to lose at least another 60 by Christmas.

Dumb phone! I didn't mean to post the same pic 3 times but here is my 150 lb loss picture. I did have a Tummy Tuck with Dr Mueller in Wheeling WV but no other lifts have been needed. I'd have the sleeve 100 times over. People I have known for years don't even recognize me.

Thank you! The best part about it is I'm relieved from the mental anguish, health issues, etc. It's like being set free from 150 lb chains!

Those photos of the room etc are great. I'm getting sleeved by Dr Kelly on aug 18. My support person (mom) was nervous about her sleeping arrangements in the hospital.

Looking good! How'd your TT experience go?

James, he has since switched hospitals but to a much better one. I've seen pictures.

Oh the Tummy Tuck. Dr Mueller is the king of TTs. I'm a nurse (midwife) and I worked with him back in the day so I was in great hands. The results can't be beat.

The drains are a real PIA. I had mine in for over 2 weeks. Very sore, much worse than the sleeve but not as bad as I imagined. I got called out and delivered a baby 1 week post op. Going back to work that early was painful but not too bad. I LOVE the results.

And Dr Mueller is only like 5200 hospital, anesthesia and all. Overnight stay.

Your journey and results are too wonderful for words! Thank you for the insight on the plastics. If I need them I'll be checking with you for details.

      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! 😞
