Hi everyone, I had a little hiccup during surgery. The hospital I went to ordered a smaller tip guide so during the surgery the doctor snipped the tip off. It took him an extra 45min to find it. Thank god it was in the cut out portion of my belly. Everything else has been great. I was up and walking the day of surgery doing lap after lap around my ward. I got to go home the next day. Just having a hard time getting enough fluids down. The doctor wants 13 cups of clear fluids per day. I walk laps around the house, drink as much as I can then nap. This is pretty much how it has been since I got home. Hope to be able to get more fluids in soon.

That's wonderful, congratulations on finally getting it done!! You must feel such a relief, I can't wait till I'm there too, tomorrow is my pre op :)

      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! 😞
