I was August 4, too. My doc still has me on Clear Liquids only, no Protein Shakes even. I also still have a drain in until Thursday. I am very tired of clear liquids, and the drain. Not much energy at all. scale is down 7lbs since surgery date.

One week out from surgery and just started full liquids. Doing well so far. Surgery went very smoothly and I'm down 10lbs.

I hope everyone is feeling okay.

I had my Aug 4th as well. I get fevers at night. 99.5 - 100.8 was the highest. Does anyone experience this?

The next day after I came home from the hospital, I battled a temp like that... but it passed within a day or so. (I kept watch)

Hello everyone. I also was sleeved August 4th (@10:30am...to be specific...lol)

I am really excited about this new start and it is great to see how y'all are doing.

I am at 7 lbs lost post-op, still on full liquids, but days away from moving to puree (which I am counting down to)

I still cannot believe how good I feel.... but I am thankful. =)

      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.

      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! 😞
