Stomach soreness



Recommended Posts

It gets a little better every day. I am 3 weeks out and typically don't have any pain. The more you walk the better you will heal so keep that in mind.

I has the vertical sleeve on April 1st. It's been 2weeks and no pain at all. I had mild discomfort after the surgery for about 12 hrs but it was just the gas build up. Lots of walking around is what I suggest while in hosp. After 2days of hosp I was walking all over Tijuana for the next 2 days

I was sleeved yesterday 4/14/15, and my stomach is so sore. How long will this soreness last?

My soreness lasted about 5 days maybe. I'm only a week out and today was by far the best day! So trust me it gets better! Good luck to you!!

Hi me and my mom are having the sleeve June 8th, I was wondering about walking around Tijuana? Did it seem safe? We will be at the Marriott I love walking I'll want to walk a bunch and was wondering how it was??

We did a lot of walking yes it's safe. About 7min walk behind the hotel is a strip mall with Walmart Starbucks and great little shops. We took in a soccer match which is next to Walmart to watch the premiere team in Tijuana play. We also walked down the street to see the small shops the other direction. Such great history and powerful paintings on the street. OXXO is exactly like 7-11 store. That where my mum went to get sandwiches which were great and cheap. They are all over the place. Sandwich costs about 1.75 U.S. There is an oxxo right beside the clinic as well. For ur mum. The ppl are so nice. Drivers are crazy. Just watch when crossing street. There are not that many walking signals. After the surgery when u r at the hotel on the 2nd day take a cab to the revolution. Cab is 100 pesos. Or 7-8$ U.S. It's where Tijuana started. Shops food for ur mum tequila shots for ur mum at all the shops it's great atmosphere. Have at least 20$ in pesos as u will tip the ppl who bring room service and stuff. It was the best hotel. Friendly efficient just a blast. Pool hottub.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
