Hey guys hope every in days has been great. Sorry i had connectivity issues but I'm red hot and rolling now. I will send list to everyone that requested it and send me your as well. Saw my Bariatrician today and my surgeon is REQUIRING me to have a sleep study even though my insurance company don't require it but it's cool.

Okay everyone....if your stay in the hospital is as quick as mine was (surgery on Wednesday eve/home Thursday afternoon), which I'm sure it will be ....this is what you'll need: comfy clothes (I wore sweats with an elastic waist), slippers and robe, comfy pillow (if you choose....I didn't), toothbrush and paste, Chapstick, electronics and chargers. I didn't have time for anything else as my stay was VERY short! I didn't even walk, except to go to the potty. I had NO incision pain but tons of gas pain. I didn't use Gas-X til I got home but it didn't work. I had CRAZY nausea. The night of surgery, I was able to sleep on my side and have been sleeping normal since!

I am a tummy sleeper as well and I think I was back to tummy sleeping right away. I did use my Percocet and Tylenol for a few days but I probably could've gotten away with only using the Tylenol....8)

      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! 😞
