I'm about six hours post op and Cant believe how "good" I feel considering this was my fourth abdominal surgery. What should've taken 45 minutes took three hours due to excessive scar tissue. The gas bloating feeling in my chest is awful

Leaving hospital tomorrow.

@@hockeymom38 The page says that it is closed and "no longer accepting new people." I'm assuming the administrator got a pretty large response.

Give it a few days. As a reminder: the group may possibly show up in the recommended pages to your friends and family. I did not know that until I joined. I chose not to tell anyone so I had to leave the group. I didn't want to answer questions from people.

Had my sleeve surgery yesterday at 5:00pm Mexico time. At first I thought I had made a mistake because the pain was so bad. Today it is not as bad, still have drain in and it will be removed tomorrow. I have a 6 hour flight home tomorrow after fluor test. I have had nothing by mouth since 9:30 Thursday night. I will get to have a few ice chips today and I am looking forward to that. Gas-x strip have helped with gas pain. I have been walking off and on since 4 hours after surgery.

Hey, I have head cravings too. But I think it will take months, if not longer, to get rid of that. I'm just trying to get different flavors. I walk between 3-6 km a day. But it's very tiring. I don't know what I have lost so far, as I don't have scales yet. I was 152kg on the opp day.

Drinking is slow and I feel, like I should drink more. But then it's come to "meal" time and I know I should not drink 30 min before and after, so it's hard to meet goals. I manage usually 4 "meals", still have to meet recommended 5 meals a day, but I'm still in recovery and sleep long, so not eanough hours in a day. ????

      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!!

      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! 😞
