I'm 23 and I was just sleeved on July 30th. I'm doing pretty well except for the aches and pains that were expected to come along with it!

Wow! Good for you on your success!!

Do they know what caused those things? Right now I'm just getting sharp pains everytime I take a deep breaths. Hoping that it'll go away or I'm going to go my PCP tomorrow. I've lost 9 lbs since my surgery!

They are not sure but I would follow up with the surgeon that you used.

I did and he doesn't think it's a leak because I don't have a fever and I'm tolerating my diet ok. But if the pain persists I'm going there tomorrow and I'm going there tomorrow to see what's going on

Me either so far, tomorrow will be my two week mark and so far I've already lost 13 lbs! I lost 54 before surgery as well, I'm psyched and I only have a few more days left of the shakes before I can finally start eating some real food!

      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! 😞
