Surgery was yesterday at 11 am. Went great ! I'm on my way home now. Drinking has been no problem at all. The larger of the incisions is a little uncomfortable understandably so. I'm so excited that I HAVE started my new life path.

Hi Armywife! I had my surgery May 30th and was very swollen in my belly. Luckily a friend had warned me this would happen..she had her surgery in August. She told me not to step on the scales until my 2 week preop appt..she said she gained 17 pounds after surgery and her doctor told her it was from the anesthesia process and the bruising swelling. I was very sore the first day home which was yesterday but mostly because I didn't keep up on my pain meds! Now I know better ...I talked with the nurse yesterday and she said pain control is very important..also the walking helps get the gas moving around so it can be released. Hang in there, you will be much better by the time your husband is home. Also I have heard the 3rd day is the worst. How are you doing with your Water?

Hey Mami! Glad to hear from you! Sorrynaboutnthe swelling but glad it is better. When did you get home? Today is the best day by far for me. I'm having trouble drinking the Protein shakes ...so heavy . I'm going to try some Soup broth that has Protein in it today and see how that goes. Can you believe we did it?!!

      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! 😞
