Tomorrow is my Surgery!



Recommended Posts

I finally had my sleeve on Tuesday. I should be going home tomorrow Thursday if my nausea stops. That Was a killer for me. I also keep getting hiccups.

I can only have clear fluids for another week then move to purée food but really slow. I'm on iv fluids while in the hospital.

I'm looking forward to learning a new health life.

Congratulations @@Zweiz, it will get better. I also had hiccups and nausea while in the hospital, but once I started walking everything started falling into place. I have not taken my nausea meds for the last two days. I'm one week post op today and went back to work last Monday. Hang in there sweetheart!

The hiccups are awful! I started getting them almost as soon as I woke up. I tried holding my breath, everything and they wouldn't stop. They finally stopped after I was able to at least eat a few ice chips. After I was able to sip Water they went away.

I hope you can get rid of them soon. The Fluid week goes quickly, after you are through it, but when starting it, 7 days seems like forever.

Good luck!!

I actually forgot to weigh myself before being operated on. I'm going home today. This is not easy. I still can't drink enough. I'm going for coconut Water.

I know I have to hang in there for a few more days to feel better. I did ask to have see my stomach. I'm taking it home to plant it under a tree or something. Lots of junk in thee to make anything grow.

God Bless All

      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! 😞
