It hurts to drink and get my pills down even when they're smashed and powdered . I hardly have a desire to eat anything and it's hard getting the Protein in . Anytime something goes down it hurts . It's like a gas bubble or something in my chest .

That's normal i was the same. They used gas to blow up your belly so they could see, or sux for like 3-4 days. Walking helps. It must stopped hurting to swallow my pills like yesterday, I'm almost 3 weeks out. I ended up in the hospital am extra day because i was retching when i tried to swallow anything. It sucked. It gets better. I hope sooner than later for you

2 days post op you should not be eating anything

I'm on a puréed diet day 2 so I am allowed to have puréed tuna scrambled eggs stuff like that. Everyone's surgeon is different in what they want you on .

Walk, sip (try different temps) and rest!

That's basically all I've been doing they told me walk every two hours I walk every like 45 mins and in the middle of the night I wake up to walk and they let me take gas x strips . My mom went down this ten years ago and she said it will get better day by day

      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! 😞
