January Surgery Dates!



Recommended Posts

Today is day 6 post-op and i can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. The pain has lessened today but im still having a lot of pain where my gallbladder was removed and where my drain is. I am having difficulty getting my Water and Protein amounts in. I have been managing about 40 oz of water and 10-20 grams of protein daily. Im hoping im through the worst of it and its only up (weight down ????) from here!

Im 5 days out, I'm still in some pain but not as much if I over do walking the pain gets worse, getting a lot of my Water in which is good. My surgery went well but they said my organs were very close to each other, they almost had to cut me all the way open! Thank god they managed!

6 Days post-op now. Feeling better each day. Don't think I've gotten enough walking in and getting Protein in is crazy too! But feelings of nausea are easing up slowly, pain is easing have slightly more mobility than I did before! The most important thing is to try and not get to the point of hunger as then I get cranky and fall in love with the smells of food! Yesterday I made sure I eat before severe hunger struck and felt a lot more at ease. Wounds have officially begun itching which is crazy as I've officially come to terms that I can visibly see staples in my stomach. And the noises your stomach makes are legendary! I'm sure this morning I could actually see the way everything was being digested...

2nd day post op. Doing great! They have me on Hycet and they will send me home with some. So grateful since I do not do well with pain. I get to start pureed Protein today. Fingers crossed it goes 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!!

      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! 😞
