My sleeve day is tomorrow at 1:30! I was originally scheduled for the 19th and got a call as I was leaving for the hospital saying my doctor was ill.

Got the call! I show up at 6am for an 8am procedure. This doesn't even feel real!

I know the feeling! I kept telling my mom that it's not legit happening until I wake up in the recovery room.

I'm done! Resting now. I was the first of many for the day so I haven't spoken to my surgeon yet, but Ite did learn something new: apparently my body doesn't react to dilaudid (sp?) at ALL. I was in excruciating pain in recovery for what felt like hours. Turns out, morphine, a less strong drug, worked waaaay better for me. Bizarre. Nap time. I'll catch up soon.

Blooming lotus, that is crazy! I'm glad they found one that worked for you.

My surgery went well, no problems! Yay!!! Afterwards very little pain, just a lot of nausea. Getting ready for a good nap myself:)

I'm staying at the hospital one more day. I was supposed to be leave today at 11 but because I've had such nausea I haven't been able to walk and drink as much as they want me to.

Im starting to feel pretty decent but I'm glad I didn't leave as planned - I wouldn't have felt comfortable!

How is everyone else doing?

      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! 😞
