@@Fat2Phat2016 and @@Fatty McFatster,

You're proud of each other for your challenge results and I'm proud of both of you. You two are still my best date in ages. If I ever get to your part of the world, I hope we can say "Hey!" Same holds if y'all get to my part of the world.

FMcF, I'm glad you're coming along.

I was able to get outside on this beautiful day and go for a short walk. Haven't been able to walk for a week and a half.

I couldn't walk far because the stent causes pain, but thankfully they are going to take it out on Tuesday.

So glad to hear that you are on the mend. Had us all worried.

I'm so tired, but I haven't slept all night. My mind is racing, legs jumping, and heart pounding.

Just read that they are some of the side effects from my diuretic, so I'll gladly deal with them since they are better than the previous alternative.

Hope you get to put all of this behind you soon. It is terrible when you are taking drugs for one thing and they cause other problems.

Happy to hear you are having good weight loss results with the Water pill. Not so good about the side effects . But like you said they are better than the weight gain. So glad you felt well enough today to get out for a bit of a walk. Once that stent is gone and your back feeling like yourself again I am sure you will be back to walking like you use to.

Can't wait to get this stent out. I have absolutely no energy and I'm very weak.

Went for a short hike today. First time I've exercised in 2 weeks.

I get my stent out tomorrow. Not looking forward to the retrieval seek and find process... LOL... but looking forward to having it out of me.

Thankfully I lost 25 pounds of the Water weight within 48 hours after taking a diuretic.

They think I'm healing well. However, I was just informed today that I have a hole in my ureter tube caused by the laser used during kidney stone surgery 2 weeks ago.

      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! 😞
