Chapstick. Pajama bottoms for walking the halls. Your hairbrush and your favorite moisturizer. I don't know why, but my skin dries out in hospitals and hotels!

A paperback book or a few magazines to help pass the time. Basic personal care items of your own, though they can normally furnish something. Glasses case if you wear glasses, Some comfortable clothes to wear home, especially loose and/or elastic waist pants. In my hospital, they had me wearing a gown and little socks with rubber nubbies on the bottom to make them nonskid, on an IV, and controlled what I ate and drank, so there was only so much to really think of.

I took a can of Avene spray Water to keep my skin hydrated in addition to the lip balm.

      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! 😞
