Not such a great belly day



Recommended Posts

So, I was sleeved on 5/15. Today, I have had scrambled eggs and yogurt and my stomach has not been happy. Had a little puking. A bit of diarrhea. I have had both foods earlier, but not the same reaction. I may just stick to the yogurt for now. Maybe eggs are too harsh. Who knows? Anyone else feel like this is a guessing game?

No not really. I have a pretty extensive eating plan from my nutritionist. She's been excellent at laying out exactly what I need to eat and what interval. I was warned up front that eggs could be tricky and they were. In a month or so they were fine. I was on liquids and purees for 6 weeks and when I got to solids, I pretty much could eat anything. I've never had a problem with any foods since.

I definitely am in the guessing game phase...it's all trial and error with me. Welcome to the club!

I was sleeved on 5/13 and have been great up to this point. But I too don't like eating. Have eaten yogurt and no problems. But little chicken yesterday and today white fish. Gave me pressure, burping, felt full for an hour. I will stick with Greek yogurt from now on... Even the Protein Shakes make me uncomfortable....yogurt has 16 grams of Protein. I'll just eat it from now on. It will be trial and error for the next few weeks for us. Good luck.

I had my procedure on Tuesday, and even Water makes me feel bloated gassy and full. I use to drink a gallon and a half a day and now I can't even get the 64oz down. Constant diarrhea, nausea, bloating, etc. and the less I eat the weaker I feel. Good news is the surgeon said people who are like that have the greatest weight loss results and can tolerate more foods later on. I'm going to incorporate Probiotics and sugar free Popsicles.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
