I was in the hospital 2 days post surgery. Most stays are 1 day but because of the sleeping all day Wednesday and the hernia repair he kept me the extra day. Glad he did because I felt horrible Wednesday. I was able to walk the hospital yesterday and eat a little more. The dr was pleased and released me about 2. I'm due to go back to work on Tuesday but I'm not sure this will happen unless I have a major turn around. Sitting with my feet up feels too good lol

Back to work already!?!?

My job is working for my family business answering phones/customer service. It's in my parents home. I have 3 weeks vacation (I've used 1) and 2 other people that work for me. So if I need to take a nap or relax a spell I will be able to. I still won't be able to drive yet but my daughter works there with me so she can drive me.

      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! 😞
