That is good news! How far out are you from surgery? If you continue to vomit you might want to let your surgeon know.

JennyBeth, could you share what your doctor did for your stricture or what you did to overcome that so others will know?

I had a upper endoscopy done last Thursday and my surgeon did a dialation of my esophagus with a balloon. However, by Saturday my throat closed back up! So since I can't eat and my Fluid intake was very low (I vomited up anything other than plain Water and even that I could only take very small sips) my surgeon admitted me to the hospital yesterday to rehydrate me and today he will be doing another upper endoscopy with stent placement. It's been a very uncomfortable and frustrating process. I really like my surgeon and I trust him completely. I just want to feel better so I can eat again! I wasn't prepared for this setback so it's been difficult, but I'm ready to be well! When my stricture started I thought my PPI was no longer working and food felt "stuck", but then it soon became where I vomited frequently after eating until I could no longer eat or swallow meds. That's why I encourage anyone who starts vomiting regularly to contact their surgeon right away! I waited thinking it was "normal" and it's been 2 weeks of a lot of discomfort so DON'T wait!

I am 4 weeks out. I think i have just been eating too much and you know how that goes. I take one bite too much and I'm throwing up. It is such a game of trial and error.

      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?

      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... :(
