How long till you feel normal



Recommended Posts

I'm 12 days out today and I have to say I'm 90% better (back to "normal").

I cannot believe how good I feel - and I'm very thankful!

Can't wait til I feel normal again. .1wk post op yesterday. .still feel very tired and drained. .no energy at all fatigue most of the day. After a shower I feel I like just ran a marathon. .Plus still bloated big time with gas pain. .walking and taking gas X. .not much relief. .wish I could fast forward 2-3 wks from now. Only lost 6.8lbs :-(

FYI my doc said 6-8 weeks until the fatigue goes away. he didnt tell me this until after the surgery though! ;)

I felt normal as soon as I was able to take in more than just liquids....which was week 3 for me! :)

      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! 😞
