I'm surprised so many people stay the night in the hospital. I had my surgery at 9:30 am and was discharged to go home at 2:45pm.

I'm surprised so many people stay the night in the hospital. I had my surgery at 9:30 am and was discharged to go home at 2:45pm.

That's actually really surprising to me because i couldn't drink anything the first day until I had my upper GI the next morning to recheck for a leak and to make sure there wasn't swelling that restricted liquids from passing through. I also had to be able to urinate and pass gas to leave. I would have felt very uncomfortable with the decision of the hospital to discharge me several hours after surgery.

      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! 😞
