Would do it again and again



Recommended Posts

I have been through a lot with my surgery. I've suffered complications and I haven't been able to eat a meal without pain in almost eight months.

It's been an ordeal and its cost me time and money and pain upon pain and my family strife and embarrassment and you name it.

But you know what? I would do it all again. Because I LOVE my body and I do feel ever so much better.

So if your on the fence just know that even in my shoes, I would do this again. It's given me my life back.

Oh you poor thing! ???? I'm really glad you feel it was definitely worth it though. One of my big worries is how I will cope with looking after my kids and being at work if I have any complications or long term pain issues-my husband is not entirely supportive of me having the surgery, and when I had my gallbladder removed last month I was back doing all the housework after a couple of days because he wouldn't lift a finger to help me ???? Still I am sure I've made the right decision and I can't wait to get started ????

      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!!

      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! 😞
