I had my surgery on Friday May 17th I got o come home yesterday. I'm doing pretty good not having any issues except I feel super full all the time. Not hungry at all. I had a low heart rate after surgery so I have to have it checked out. They didn't seem to hunk it meant anything but the doctor suggested I have it looked at. They also did a EKG in he middle of he night on Fruday and it came back fine. Soo I have an appointment on the 29th to have it checked again. I have to have another EKG before the appointment. I hope it's nothing my mom had a low heart rate after her knee surgery so it could just run m my family. We will see. Other than hat was not nervous at all before going in. Cracked jokes at my surgeon had everyone laughing!! I am not in pain and haven't taken any pain meds today t all. Walked down the street a little ways

S this afternoon. Not very far though. All in all I'm doing great!!

Glad to see all is well.

I know what ya mean! Glad your okay. It will get easier. It was a tough weekend for me, but I got up and went to the mall to walk. The gas was the worst feeling. I took hot showers, a heating pad and used Gas X strips. Thank goodness its subsided! I hope your feeling better soon.

Hang in there May ladies (and gents)! My surgery was 4/9 and it wasn't a picnic. We are freaking our bodies out an they react in different ways. I have my energy back and start 'regular' food today. Even though i've been grumpy at times,, teary, frustrated and just plain tired, I would NOT change my mind about having this surgery. I am down 43 lbs and loving it! Hang in there and keep your eyes on your long range goals of a healthier life.

      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
