My dr said the ones I had were ok as they were adult ones, however I am most likely finding something different as I am beginning to not like the gumminess. Lol... Walmart has the b complex liquid that is great.

Hey everyone just dropping by to say hello. I am now 9 days post op and getting better everyday. Still have some muscle soreness on my right side, but am very thankful I have not been sick or had any other issues. As of Monday (one week post op) I am down 10 lbs. That is a total of 41 lbs since I started this whole journey. I just get tired pretty easy that is the only complaint I have. I am on puréed foods now and no issues. Yay!

The nurse even said im getting my color back. :) Tomorrow I have more test' date=' they are still trying to figure out what's wrong. So far I've had an ultrasound, MRI, x-ray.

My sd were 10/15 & 10/16. The only pain i get is on my left side, under my boob. I was told this is normal as it is where the biggesg stuff was done inside (including staples)

I have had right side pain, but my surgeon said that she had to cut more into my muscle on that side and that will pain for a little bit, but it will eventually get better. Has it gotten better since you posted? If it hasn't , then you should call your doc to be sure.

I have the right side pain too, you can tell by the way the incision on that side looks that he had to cut into more muscle. If it wasn't for that, I would be good to go.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
