I had surgery September 28th. I was home the next day. The gas pains are the worst! Make sure you are stocked up on gas-x because you will need it. Walking helps alot! I was in quite a bit of pain after surgery. They brought me to my room and I just could not get comfortable in the bed because of all the gas pains, I had to get up and walk immediately

How are you doing? I'm doing well I had the sleeve. My incisions are starting to itch so I'm guessing that means they are healing. I have little to no pain. I don't have a scale so I am waiting until my 3 week post op visit for my first weigh in.

I had my sleeve to bypass revision on 9/28 and was discharged on 9/30. I had to give quite a few pleases to go. He had preferred I stayed 1 more night. I had my revision due to severe acid and bile reflux and so far I have not had any problems with reflux since. I am still having some intermittent pain but nothing I can't handle. I am keeping liquids down but I am having no desire to drink at all. I am trying to force it but that is very hard for me to do. I am going to start my Protein Shakes tomorrow. Hope everyone is doing well!!

I had my RNY on the 28th. Doing fairly well. Pain is pretty much gone except for the occasional sharp pain on my left side that lasts a few min and then gone. I am having a tough time getting all of my Protein and Fluid requirements in. I hate that protein shakes! I can't wait until I can have cold things and something other than liquid! Hope everyone is doing well!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
