Thanks Cherrie! Wish you were closer to! Texting everyday just isn't the same as seeing each other and being able to hang out. Although we text like we have been friends for years on end! Lol. This surgery was meant to happen for a reason, whatever the reason it, there is one and I accept it. We go through things in life for a purpose, and we can choose to weaken from it n let it control us, or kick it in the ads and make ourselves stronger, and stronger I will be :-) Maybe a bit anxious but I'm gonna put my fist up and prepare for the battle!! Watch out ;-)

Stupid stomach! Sorry you have to go through this, Kyle. And they discovered all this because you had such great success... That's just messed up. Glad they found it before it caused any serious trouble, though.

What doesn't kill is makes us stronger :-) Walked into it with a positive attitude and I must maintain that, and I plan to :-) Sometimes I guess there is consequences with success lol.

So... Getting anxious and nervous about surgery Tuesday, but keeping a positive attitude :-) I look back at when I got the sleeve and I remember afterwards I laughed at myself for being as anxious and nervous as I was because it was not nearly as bad as I expected. This just makes me more nervous I guess because it's not a surgery that's done everyday and it just makes me nervous as hell. Just the sound of what they are doing gets me so...ugh nervous! Just needed to vent, sorry lol.

      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?

      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.
