I had a open cut gastric on the 6th.. I tried this week to lay onmy stomach but it hurt so I got off quick, same with my side. So back to the recliner for a while.

I hav felt a lil hungry so I try crunchy like popsicles or Peanut Butter, or peaches or pears..

How do u feel cause i'm still weak n bout pass out if I stand to long. I still hurt but everyday gets better. I gotta get past the weakness to walk around more. Just a shower wipes me out.

Hope this helps u.

Yes i've stated vitamins. Oh I no the feeling about going crazy. I am very energetic n i'm sure not use to my husband n daughter doing as much, plus they don't do it like me, but i'm grateful. I caught then gone n vacuum, my mother in law caught me n fussed, because I about passed out. So i'm trying to take it slow. Today is first day I've got to hi back to church i've missed that, i'm in pain but at least i'm pushing out. U take care keep in touch.

I just brought peaches to make a peach Protein Shake. You've got me scarred now. I threw up for the first two days home so I don't want to experience that again.

Faith did your Dr. Give u nausea medicine? When I through up it was just from motion sickness and the medicine helped tremendously. That's what that had me use in the hospital to because I would dry heave when I moved around. I hope u feel better!

I don't think it was the peaches. Because i've been eating peaches for a while n I did fine. I think it was the oatmeal that had me blocked n I just piled fluids on top of it then the peaches n that's wen it decided to come up. I really believe it was oatmeal.

      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.

      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! 😞
