My surgery is 2 hours away. I would have driven myself there but then didn't know what LOL. I probably would have driven myself home LOL but clearly that's not safe. But once I get home, I am on my own with everything and my pain & health, thus why I am getting a ton done this week. You are not alone my friend!!!

I hope you have older ones in the bunch who can help. Years ago I had a fantasy of having 5 kids.

Feeling much better on day 2 and 3. Day 1 was tough. My morphine pump messed up throughout the night and stopped working so I was med-free for awhile and in a lot of pain. Once that was under control, I was doing better. Coughing hurts, but using a pillow and having one leg off the bed helps. Hope y'all are well.

Yes it is! Day 1 was hell all I wanted to do was sleep so I couldn't feel pain and that coughing was horrible. You feel like you need to throw up but all you are doing is dry heaving lol. The 2nd day wasn't too bad and today being my 3rd dayI I feel 89% better my stomach isnt too sore but still painful getting up and out of bed for walking or going to the bathroom. So happy you are going through everything at the same time! :)

I have not weighed myself. I'm still retaining so much Water so why look yet. Plus the scale is under the bed and i can not bend over drs orders, husband is at work and kids are at school so no way of reaching it. No pain just some soreness. :)

Yea same here feeling very bloated and can hardly bend. I feel you...I might wait a while till I weigh myself so I don't get discouraged or too excited cause I lost 5lbs and then weigh myself again and notice I have not lost anything.

      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! 😞
