Wish me luck, I am going in tomorrow for an EGD to see if I have a stricture. Hopefully they find something and can fix it so I can get more solid food in!

Best of luck! Sorry you have to go through this, but strictures are fixable! I'm battling a kink and twist right now (kink fixed with endoscopy, but twist still hanging on...) Even if it takes more aggressive treatment, any improvement will be a relief for you.

Good luck!

How far out are you? Maybe the egd will straighten it out for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed! Keep us posted.

Thanks for the kind thoughts. I had surgery May 28th. SW 244, current weight 197. I am just struggling with getting enough Protein and eating more solid foods. I am living on cottage cheese, string cheese, yogurt and fish.

No stricture thank goodness. MD said to just give it time, that everything looked good. Interestingly, I got to see my new tummy and the incision line. Makes me appreciate the magnitude of what I had done and how truly amazingly quick our bodies recover! It is no joke in there!

      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! 😞
