Recovery was a bitch for me! I'm old, whiney and it was major surgery... BUT, it was worth every miserable second I had to endure those first days..

Keep your eye on the prize girlie and all will be fine :)

Well, I always hate to comment after Laura because she makes me feel awful for having such an easy recovery. :P

When I woke up from surgery it was as if I hadn't had surgery at all.

Lol.. I'm A LOT older. Maybe it's because my poor old body is used to surgery abuse

Laura, ur not the only whiny 1 here.My recovery wasn't great either. Much worse than my lapband surgery 4 yrs ago.

However, that being said, it was definitely worth it! U will get thru it (pain or no pain) and look back on it with a distant memory. I've heard it's like childbirth. U forget over time.

Good luck to u!

      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! 😞
