I'm suddenly feeling nervous. I don't know if I am ready. I don't know what to pack for the hospital stay. I feel like my house is a mess. I don't know what I'm going to eat when I get home.

Hang in there! I'm sure I'll be feeling the same way in two weeks, and I think it's normal!

Pack comfortable loose fitting clothes, sandals or slip ons (to walk in), toothbrush, hair brush etc. i filed my nails while resting watching tv. Lip balm, my lips were chapped afterwards. Dont forget your ipad or other electronic devices.

Good luck! Hope it all goes well

@@nikki9, you will be on bariatricfull liquids. Walk, walk. It helps prevent blood clots and gets you on a good path to recovery. Good luck. I was nervous as well :)

      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! 😞
