Thank you everyone! I just met my anesthesiologist. She was very Christina Yang from Greys Anatomy. Kinda dry humor straight to the point. I liked her :)

Ahhhhhhh! This is all so real now. I can't help but to feel as though I should run out of here.

Hi everyone! I wanted to thank everyone for the well wishes! Besides some pain that's totally tolerable with meds and being horribly thirsty, I feel great! My mouth is soooooo dry but not allowed to sip on anything till tomorrow.

So wondered how you are feeling Day 2? I woke up feeling OK.. Pain/uncomfortable right where my actual stomach is. Have not had liquids yet, they said soon. My mouth is so dry!

Oh I bet! The dry mouth was the worst! I've never been so thirsty. I was just brought a tub of fluids to pick from and a ton of medicine cups. It was the most exciting time ever! Haha. I feel like such a nerd to have gotten so excited by the sight of a beverage.

Pain wise: I'm feeling great. I've been walking a whole lot. They keep asking me if I've passed any gas. Which I haven't, so hopefully it won't hurt when I do. I keep the medicine button close by when I get stomach spasms.

I got no sleep last night. Someone kept coding and I couldn't help but worry so I stayed up. I did ask of it was a bariatric patient. It was not. Eased my mind a little (sounds terrible I know)

Keep me updated!

      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... :(
