I just saw them and wholly Hanna you look hot! Even with the drains and bandages. Your belly button looks fantastic, you have to be absolutely thrilled.

I cannot wait until I am healthy enough to have mine done. Just seeing your pictures made me feel great!

I am so happy for you. By the way dilaudid is a wonderful drug for pain control. After my cervical fusion in June, they put me on dilaudid and I had to fly home 2 days later. I really don't remember too much from those first 2 weeks post op. LOL! I don't remember how I got home, 1 night in a hotel or even bits and pieces of the flight except when I got jostled on the landing. That hurt like hell.

Stay ahead of your pain meds. You look fabulous!

Is that flower not somewhat uncomfortable?

It's great to see and hear how well you are doing!!! The surgeon did an amazing job, it looks awesome, even at 1 day out. I looked HORRIBLE!! The bruising was terrible, surgeon didn't know why I bruised more than usual. Once it healed and all swelling was gone, I was thrilled with the end result. I'm sure you're thrilled already and it only gets better from here!

I am thrilled. I did have a episode earlier though. I decided I wanted to have a shower so I took my binder off and was heading to the shower. I stared getting light headed so I yelled for my husband and the next thing I knew I fainted and was laying on the floor. Naked. Scared my husband to death. I won't be taking a shower today. That kinda hurt but I'm more worried about being naked on the dirty floor. Now I really want to sanitize myself but I'll just wait it out and sponge off.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
