Thanks everyone for the support and good luck and prayers for a safe surgery. I am still at the hospital since arriving yesterday. They said I could go home after I eat my 1st liquid meal.

I slept in my bed, used extra pillows. Kingsize or body pillow to use as protection I hugged onto it slept comfortable.

still having trouble figuring out this forum on my iPad, but this post I was referring to the post about sleeping at home after surgery.
Hi Cookies, how r u feeling? We r almost a week out? Have u weight yourself?
I'm feeling good just itchy I have the steri-strips off tomorrow. Started stage 2 today Vitamins, Protein baby food and yogurt... My scale may be off a little but today from date of surgery about 7lbs down. How are you doing? I'm glad haven't gotten sick at all and drinking plenty of Water.
That's great good job. I've lost about 9.2 lbs. try Benadryl for the itchy. I was Severely dehydrated up In till sat. It was Horrible but I'm all better now. We must have different Stages. every dr is different. Cause I'm able to eat Soups and such blended in a blinder. My sister made chili and I Blended it with beef stock. Then put it in ice cube trays. Pop two out and there is my ounce of food. I'm glad ur doing good I go see my dr next wed. Keep in touch :)

Good, I'm so glad you're well....keep me informed. I'm pretty much the same. Gotta get this dinner down. It's not hard, but these gas pains are more of a pain in the ass lol

      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! 😞
