Okay post 2 days revision I weigh in at 246 I will keep u posted on my journey. My throat is very sore and I was only able to consume about 2 ounce of liquids today it feels sort of strange when it hit my stomach it's cramps a little and it stops. Will this get better? And was anyone sent home with a plastic bag that is draining Fluid time one week post surgery?

I get the weird cramping as well. Kind of like a big bubble that forms in my stomach every time I swallow something a little too much.

I personally didn't have a drain, but it is very common to have one after surgery. Best of luck!

. Hello kb88 today I am 2 weeks post surgery and I am 10 pounds down feeling better the bag was taken out on the March 18 and the removing of the bag hurt really bad. I have to remember to chew my food very fine. I was surprise that my stomach only can hold 3oz of egg white. This week I will head to the gym but I realize that I have to pace myself. I have one problem and that is consuming 64 oz of Water I am not even at 16 yet is that bad?

Trust me going from the band to the sleeve was the best thing I ever did, so far I have not had any complication at all from the surgery just a sore throat. I am 12 days post op. Just relax and follow the instruction of your doctor. I must say drinking 64 oz of liquid will be hard I still have problems with that getting down 8-16 oz. I am down 10 pounds and the doctor took me off my blood pressure medication (GREAT). Stay focus and u will be fine. Keep me posted on your journey in April did they give you the exact date yet? Best of luck and u will do well.

      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... :(
