chapstick!

very baggy underwear

baggy dress or

very baggy very soft pants and oversized top

flip flops

patience :0)

When I left the hospital I was VERY swollen. My underwear was way to tight and it was comfy before I went in. I wish I had had a dress even though I HATE dresses. Chapstick because your lips WILL be dry.

really, nuthin else. Wear the clothes in and out. It will be very hard in the beginning, but it is well worth it.

Good LUCK!

Christy,

I was only in for a little over 24 hours. I wore my loose jeans (loose from pre op diet), I took a back pack with my toothbrush, deodorant, make-up bag and extra pair of panties to wear home. I wore the same clothes home that I wore to the hospital. Keep it simple and good luck. I had no swelling.

I wear the same outfit to go home,

Deodorant

Phone and charger

sugar free halls for your dry mouth and bad taste.

The hospital gave me a nice box with everything that you will need.(Toothpaste, toothbrush and etc)

I was there for two days. So I had already taken an extra pair of panties (just in case. And (tmi alert) if you fart something other then air might come out). The hospital does give you stuff but I don't know if you are like me but I like my own soap and stuff to take a shower. And let me tell you that shower was the best shower in the world. Don't know if you watch The Walking Dead but I was like those guys when they took their first shower in forever. Chapstick is a must. (I had 3). I wore a light t shirt and stretchy yoga pants going in but then changed into one of my over sized sleep shirts. Wore that home.

      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! 😞
