Fabulous February Post-Op's

So I learned the hard way-- too much Fiber fort pouch. I ate a few spoons of new potatoes with skins. Couldn't process skins. Once it all came up I was ok.

I think I may be writing to myself, but that's ok. I am about to undergo surgery--they think I have a hernia. Not fun.

Hey everyone...I developed a UTI last week and my doctor prescribed antibiotics on Friday evening, it is now Monday and I have spent the last 3 days in bed. I feel better UTI wise but I was wondering if any of you have been on antibiotics since surgery and had them just knock you down?

I have my 6 month with the surgeon tomorrow morning so I am going to talk to him but I have scoured the board and haven't found anything similar?

Almost forgot to take a 6 month picture... Down 82 lbs. 18 lbs to go to 160. I'm hoping to reach that by New Year's Eve (my wedding anniversary). I'm thinking I'd love to be 155 but at this point I'm so happy with the result! Yeah gastric bypass surgery!!!!

Just an FYI. Had my appointment and my surgeon had No idea why the medication knocked me on my butt. I am, however, feeling much much better.

      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... :(
