I have absolutely nothing to say but glowing reviews about the hospital and staff that took care of me during my surgery. I was sleeved at Grandview Hospital in Dayton Ohio. This is an older hospital in a bad part of town that has had a bad reputation. But several years ago it was brought into a network of four hospitals in the Dayton area and went through an extensive remodel. The hospital is beautiful now. Clean and modern, yet warm. My room was basically private. When you enter from the hall it splits into two rooms. So I had privacy and plenty of room for visitors. The bathroom was very large and easy to manuever in. And the staff were beyond compare. Each person truly seemed to care about me and my well being. So I give the highest props to all at Grandview Hospital in Dayton Ohio!

My hospital stay was also ideal. Can I boast about my hospital too? Bay Area Hospital in Coos Bay Oregon. Every single nurse was kind and punctual and even bending over backwards to make sure I was comfortable at all time. And they had a "window seat" that converted into a bed (bedding and pillows were underneath) so I could have someone stay with me. Had we known that, we probly could've forgone the motel my hubby stayed in (hospital was 3 hrs away). He even took a very comfy nap on 1 of the days!

The bariatric floor at the hospital doesn't use pain pumps either. They want to know exactly when ur in pain so they can check u out every single time. And the nurses would give me 1/2 a dose every 2 hrs instead of the every 4 it was ordered to keep me comfy. And they were so nice when they had to hook my compression stockings back up every single time I had to go pee (which with IV fluids was every 15 minutes, literally). Hubby finally learned how to do it allowing the nurses to actually help others instead of just me!

I loved my hospital stay too even though it was just one night. I had the tv remote all to myself, got to lay in bed without feeling guilty and people brought whatever I needed to me. I guess I am easy to please but was like a mini vacation.

      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! 😞
