I was sleeved on May 13 th. I'm doing pretty well...so hard getting in all of the Protein. Water which I hated before is my new best friend. 5 days post op and I'm still really tired and weak. Tomorrow is my first Dr appointment hopefully move to mushy foods! Any one else feel weak and lightheaded? I'm so ready for my energy to return! Good luck to you all!

I was really sore but I got up right after I came up from recovery and went pee. Then was able to get up and pee on my own after and walk around. Sitting up was rough as well as turning over. I slept on my stomach last night. Only taking pain meds at night. To help sleep. Gas pain on and off was really bad right out of surgery but it gets better. I'm just ready to start this new chapter in my life!!!!

I never lost my energy... I started Vitamins (chewables) three days before surgery... I also found chewable squares of Biotin and I have not lost any hair at all except normal shedding. I found Protein ice that I drank on my clear liquid diet!! I think this helped! It is real high in protein... Chike has a great ice coffee packed with protein and tastes great! I had this every morning. Their shakes Taste better than most as well. I had my surgery 4/23!! I had a ruff day the first day post op because I didn't get my butt up and walk enough... The gas is what hurts! My doc wouldn't give heavy narcotics because it binds you up but he took pitty on me and gave me one dose and said "walk walk walk" Ahahah so I did and felt much better!! Not sure if this helps.

I'm certainly trying to be ready. It's not easy. Feel like I won't be able to get some sleep tonight. What about you?

      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! 😞
