My drain was removed at one wk visit and they left me with a hole in my side they said it would heal but it's still draining. I am glad to have it removed. I know this might be a dumb question but what does HW mean? I know sw is surgery weight and cw is current weight just not sure of the other.

I understand HW means heaviest weight. This is likely what you weighed before the preop diet. Surgery weight is the weight you are once you complete the preop diet and head into surgery.

Ohhhh okay lol, I wasn't sure thank you. Your doing really well with the weight loss

Got home from the hospital yesterday. Just had some gas pain, but it wasn't to bad. Didn't sleep good at all in the hospital, turned out I was allergic to the detergent they use on their linens. So I am broke out all over the place. Other than that I am doing just fine. I am able to get all my fluids in.

That's crazy that you're hungry. I don't think I will ever be hungry again! I constantly feel full! I have to force myself to eat a couple bites of yogurt at mealtimes.

I literally have no hunger,in fact I have to set alarms to remind myself to eat!

I'm almost 2 weeks out and am about 17 pounds down. I was in the hospital almost my entire first week so I'm doing pretty well!

I figured as much! I'm chewing the life out of sugar free gum and I am going to make ice cubes out of juice to get flavor and the crunch..

      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! 😞
