My doc said this is the norm.

That's been my experience, too.

So sorry you are having so many complications. Hopefully it all gets better for you soon. Hang in there. ;)

You're super lucky! I was sleeved on Halloween and I've had complications until week 3!

If you don't mind me asking, how has the weight loss been for all the no complications folks? I've been losing about a pound or so a day. I'm 9 days out and down 9 pounds, which seems on the lower side of what people report (I know, I know--don't compare!). Though I lost about 20 pounds on a 2 week pre-op semi-liquid diet and 25 pounds on my own before that. I'm eating about 400-600 calories and walking 30-45 minutes a day.

I'm not a daily or even weekly weigher. At 2 weeks post op I had lost 26lbs, at 6 weeks another 6. My last weigh in was on 11/3 so I'm due for an update, but my clothing feels loser and my seatbelt is less of a struggle. At my last doctor's appointment I was told I was doing well so we'll see. I don't go back to the doctor's until 12/19.

I'm still losing. I was down another 15.2 lbs at my doctor's appointment on Tuesday. My f/u is tomorrow and if I've lost another 1½ lbs it will be 50lbs since surgery.

      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! 😞
