November surgeries?



Recommended Posts

Left side pain is very normal as that's where most of the work was done. Your incision is probably larger there too. I'm 2 weeks post op and still sore on the left side. Hope you feel better!

Surgery went great. I'm in minimal pain. Just some gas on left side and a little in The new pouch. Doing a barium test for leaks thismorning then I start on Clear Liquids. Hope everyone goes as smooth as mine went!

CHALLENGE! November sleevers! http://www.dailymile.com/ is a great website where you can track your mileage that you walk/run/bike/etc. I have created on challenge on this site for just us! I challenge YOU to walk/run 365 miles before december 1st, 2014. That is one mile a day for a year after our surgery!

I have made the challenge 'invite only' so you will have to add me as a friend on dailymile then I can invite you! It's a great way to encourage everybody in exercise in addition to eating. The challenge says NOTHING about being a sleever, so you don't have to worry about privacy issues. What do you all think?! Feel free to ask me any questions!

Ty guys, your support means a lot to me! I hope to be going home tomorow. Still lots of left side pain. Feels like the extreme heartburn. Be nice to be in my own bed and not poked at every couple hours.

3 days out and I feel great! Figuring out what to eat has been a challenge. The sample menus don't look appetizing so I'm winging it but staying within my food list. How about everyone else?

      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... :(
