I didn't have any medication prescribed at discharge. I was told to take gasx strips if needed. I did use them on day 2 and 3.

@onthewrighttrack @@Idonerds I had to do a 2 week preop all liquids...it sucks. I cheated at least three days of out 14 and still managed to lose 10lbs before surgery. I'm surprised they didn't tell you that u can have chicken broth etc.

I can have sugar free Jello, ice pops(30 calories a day of those), broth, and 2cups of vegetables a day.

Oh that it all I had so far today on my clear liquid diet. My friend is making the chicken broth. I'm having the broth my son is having tacos. I went on my own diet a week before. I lost about seven pounds. Don't know for sure because my scale is broken. It says I weigh 150.2...lol. Anyways I just needed to make sure my weight was around the same when I visited the surgeon in early October. I'm sure I made it.

      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! 😞
