Almost 1 month out and feeling pretty good. Never had problems with the nauseousness. Have had some pain at the largest incision site and bruising there also. Still having trouble getting all the fluids in but doing pretty well with Protein. Definitely have restrictions with food. Only eat 4-6 bites of food and I feel a tightness in my chest. Hopefully that will relax just a little. Any good ideas on how to increase my Fluid. I eat popsicles, drink Water and gatorade but inly get like 30-40 ounces in a day. Side note I am down 30 pounds counting weight lost on pre op diet!!!

      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! 😞
