Abdominal Binder - HIGHLY Recommend



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on July 8th, and prior to surgery I read a recommendation to buy an abdominal binder. I put it on tonight after my first shower, and the comfort of the abdominal binder is awesome.

I would highly recommend one, it makes you feel comfortable, and like your tummy area and insides aren't all over the place.

Where did you get yours? I looked for one after my gallbladder removal and couldn't find one big enough.

@@WitchySar I got one at Baby's R Us...........You can also ask the hospital for one. They most often provide them for woman after a C-section.....I first borrowed one from my daughter who got her's after her C-section....it got too big so I bought another one.

I bought mine on Amazon. They had a plus size one, and it adjusts with your size.

I looked up medical supply near me and went and got one, it was about 25.00

Good idea!...I will definitely look into getting one. I recall having my very first abdominal surgery many years ago, and wished that I had thought/known about this...I used a cough pillow that my nurse made for me, but it wasn't too effective...This sounds like it would be.

      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! 😞
