Hey everyone! Just a quick update.... I made it through to better healthier me. Had a some pain in the beginning and my surgery took 3 hours instead of the first thought 1 1/2 hrs. My surgeon says I have a really narrow torso which made it hard to access everything. I also had to have 5 incisions instead of 3. But overall I am walking great. Just some pain with swallowing once it hits my stomach. Passing gas okay to. About to head home just wanted to check in with you all. Let me know if u have any questions for me!

Congrats! Glad it all went well. Is there anything that sticks out that you would want to tell us? Like if you could go back in time and tell yourself something that you didn't already know what would it be? Does that sound silly? Lol

Nothing stands out yet. Waiting for things to heal so I can intake more. Kind of worried about how long that will take. Other than that ask your nurses and doctor tons of questions.

      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! 😞
