I had family, husband and support group! But, I found this site helping me through some of my darkest times. It's amazing when u are experiencing something and someone knows the answer. Or, when you get angry at others for eating something u like. We r here for u!! Send a private message if you have to, but talking/ chatting gets u through it.

Hi, It is very important to walk!! I was non compliant and suffered 3 hospital stays due to infection and pnuemonia. Walking also helps wake up the bowels and keep things moving on the inside. I felt like crap but once I started to comply thing turned for the better immediately. Now I am 6 weeks out and feel fabulous. Good luck.

      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! 😞
