So sorry i didn't see that before i posted. The day when you can use the hand wash cloth is a day your rejoice! Hang in there everyday is an improvement.

On My 2nd day in the hospital I truly enjoyed washing up and changed into my own pj 's and walked the hallways with a skip in my step. :)

The anesthesia is probably having an affect on you still, as well! Hang in there, this will all pass soon. Your journey has begun, celebrate!!! :)

I know, I just keep thinking this muscle pain will never go away and I'll be walking like the hunchback forever. Just not feeling like myself

Not that it's the same, but I'm 9 days out and started crying today because my doctor (my family doc) didn't have any open appointments today to look at the rash I've had since surgery. Like, hung up the phone and cried like a baby.

You're only 2 days out. All the meds in your system.... Just let yourself cry it out. It will get better. Everyday has gotten better for me. Gas has gone away, and the pain gets less everyday. And it gets easier to get up/down/around. I promise. ;)

I cried today. I'd been out and about with my friend everywhere. EVERYWHERE!!!! We are both moving and were shopping around for things we needed and I was in the middle of Walmart and this overwhelming fatigue hit me. I felt so tired and I just started to cry. Right there in front of the soy sauce and rice noodles. I had to go sit in the car. I know. I'm a weirdo.

But my guy is in Washington state and I'm in Oklahoma. I haven't seen him since October and it just hit me that he's not here to bolster me when I need support. I felt utterly alone in an ocean full of bodies. And the fatigue from doing too much today got to me.

I know right now that my body is being flooded with hormones and it's normal to be overly emotional, but that didn't stop it from happening.

I just wanna give you your big of hug! I wish we lived closer, I'd come over and we could get chocolate wasted on a whole 3 bites of pudding. (I hope that at least gave you a chuckle. )

Well, not totally. I got up and grabbed a pudding cup too. We just got chocolate wasted 1000 (or however many miles apart we are) apart.

This happened to me too right after surgery. I just wanted to weep like a small child for absolutely NO reason. Your hormones are confused, your body is traumatized and I have read losing weight will release more hormones. Hang in there and just rest. It'll get better!!!

I am 2 days post op. I am not in any pain. The nausea sucks but I am handling it ok. I just feel like part of me has died. I am so depressed. I am sitting here and I feel like my choices have been taken away from me. I can no longer get up and grab whatever I want and put in my mouth. I can no longer sit down and eat normally with my family. I have been home for two dinners so far and I sat in the living room while they ate. I could smell all the food. I am feeling hungry and I don't think that is normal from what I hear. Just feeling pretty sad.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
