Yay I'm now post op! Pain and nausea were at a 8/9 out of ten when I woke up took quite a few hours to get under control but feeling much better now nausea gone thanks to a patch they put on and pain maybe 2/3 out of ten.

Able to sip Water with some discomfort, didn't get any sleep with all the check ups but managed to half doze. I'm in for one more night then home tomorrow morning. I can't believe this is real! All the best to you all on your journeys :) and speedy recovery!

I had my final preop assessment today. Am exhausted and terrified. The bariatric nurse has made me feel the next six weeks are going to be unbearably horrible. She said nothing of the positive endpoint only the horrible symptoms. She spoke about dilating strictures for ages! I know I need this surgery to stand a chance of being healthy. Only now I'm dreading it. Sorry to be such a worrier- I thought today would be a boost. I was very wrong!

I had my surgery yesterday and was released home this afternoon. Except for the continuing gas issues and the pain when I try to use my abdominal muscles, and the Dr. had to repair a large hiatal hernia while inside, I feel great! Now starts the hard part - the post-op diet!

      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! 😞
