Really decent. Just got this horrible feeling in my chest/upper stomach area. Every time I take a drink. Guess it's still gas Because I comes and goes.. So that's what I think it is?

I also had surgery the 24th and came home the 25th. I have that feeling in my upper stomach/. Chest area, kind of "fullness". Could be gas, I just figured its from the swelling and trying to get liquids in.

Yes, I'm afraid of everything, lol. I had a pill I needed to resume taking after surgery and even though my dr said I'd be fine, I was scared to death. I finally took it and was fine. My nurse told me I could take Tylenol capsules, but when I did, I still cut them in half first just to make sure, lol.

I'm managing to get my liquids and Proteins in so far, although I feel like its a full time job. Still swollen and look 8 months pregnant, but the scale showed a 3 lb loss today, so hopefully the extra Fluid is leaving.

I was sleeved on Wednesday oct 23 .. Had that annoying upper gas. I highly recommend gas x strips they dissolve on ur tongue and have worked wonders for me. I can pretty much get down any liquid all kinds of Soups and once in a while a hunger pain even.. Might be a thirsty pain I don't even know still confused lol. I haven't been on the scale since surgery but already noticing a difference in just my face alone.

      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! 😞
