Wow @sleevesia and here I am complaining about wanting something to eat. I am sorry you're such problems. I had a lot of neck and shoulder pain about 4 days post op but it was definitely gas and it didn't go away for about 2 days. Lets just hope that whatever is happening is only temporary and the worst part is already behind you. Take care and I hope you feel better soon! I will f/u to check on you and if possible, try to get your Protein, Water and Vitamins down. Good Luck.

I had my staples removed today and I am so glad because they were hurting. So now I just have 8 more days of thin liquids and then I can begin Soups with the all the fixings (the meat and the vegetables). Yay!

I suggest the Isopure drinks as they can count as both Protein (a whopping 40 grams for each one) and fluids (20 ounces) they have all sorts and today I am having coconut. They are clear like Water. I also added clear beef broth and unflavored Protein powder to cream of mushroom Soup and thinned with Water last night and strained the mushroom chunks out and it was tasty. Had about 2-3 ounces. I am 2 days out of surgery. Has finally is moving also. Still taking the pain meds though.

      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.

        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... :(
