Hi, Sometimes after the surgery talking can cause one feeling out of breath. That does improve when you start Protein Shakes. But if it persists speak to your doctor about it.

I talk for a living, and I just cant imagine always feeling so full and gasy after. I have never regretted anything so much as this surgery. I am a shell of my former self. Uhh.

It was just to lighten the mood :) but seriously. .. you are still very early out and the first few weeks are the hardest. We all experience all kinds of weird things early on. My guess is like most of the other things thiss too shall pass. If it's a major concern I would talk to your surgeon, that's what they're there for. When I was about where you are I had regrets too but be careful because you can really sabotage your success with regrets. Try to understand that these things will get better with time and healing. Good luck

      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! 😞
