This has been the longest week of my life! But finally my surgery date is TOMORROW! I am so excited!

I will only be missing one day of school if everything goes well and we have a 4 day weekend because of MLK Day on Monday so I'll have some time to recover.

My mother offered to drive me around to my classes until I feel better about driving and I don't have to go back to work for 2 weeks!

It's going to be a tough semester but it will be well worth it!

@@fit4life123 how did you make out?

I was release last night and felt pretty good. Trying to get my liquids down which is a challenge but got about 30g of Protein in and 30oz of Water so far. Will do another Protein Drink later so I should be around 60g and hopefully 60oz of Water

I was discharged today and while I do feel sore I'm not in any pain other than the gas pressure.

I am now doing puréed/soft foods(day 3 post op) but will wait until 6 or 7ish to eat, since I was finally able to have a thicker Soup for lunch(I was on Clear Liquids, no broth on my day after surgery)

I'm trying to focus on keeping hydrated and Protein.

      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! 😞
