My fellow 16th-er... Have you noticed any weight loss yet? Also what kind of Soups have you been eating? I'm getting bored with cream of mushroom cream of chicken and Tomato. (Not that I eat more than three bites each) ;)

Is that what that pain is in my abdomen? Gas? I haven't passed much gas...everything went really well, I think...just kinda sore...throat where they put in the breathing tube and abdomen. Feeling much better than I feared I would. The whole thing was so much less painful and invasive than I had feared it would be. Relieved. Now my new life starts! (I lost about 14 pounds on that prep diet of liquids. Thought I would never want to look at liquid again...but after having my last sip of Water on Monday night at 10 pm (12-22) and not able to have any liquids until this morning (12-24) @ 6am....I am grateful for liquids.feeling a bit bloated (odd) and sore...but all in all, I am a happy camper! :D

Actually this feels a lot like it did after childbirth (all 3 times). Loud noisy gas and sore abdomen...just worried about whether I should be pooping or not? (Not that I have put much in to poop out in the past week...)

I didn't poop for like 8 days. There isn't much in there ;)

Gotta love the honesty of this site! ????

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
