Regrets after surgery?



Recommended Posts

@@ecoreen94 I'm sorry you've been sick. Have you been nausea? Vomiting? Pain in chest/stomach....after eating? I was sleeved three weeks ago& I still feel tightness in my chest/stomach after I eat. My doctor told me to eat slower & gave me a stomach muscle relaxer as well. Seems like it takes me forever to finish eating certain foods. Don't regret everyone's body is different & it could just take time for your body to adjust to your new size stomach.

I wish I could go back in time, too.

I would like to do so so I could have had surgery much sooner in life.

Everything gets much better after the first couple of months.

Hope you feel better. I have never heard of anyone regretting having w.l.s.. I'm getting anxious about my surgery but also excited.

Hang in there, I have not had regrets. I am a year out and down over 100 pounds. I had not expectations going in about anything and just lived one day at a time.

My sentiments exactly!!!!! I'm 3 weeks post op still adjusting but loving the challenge. VERY GASSY almost to the point of regurgitation when I eat too fast/much (still figuring out the amounts) but it's all worth it!!

      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! 😞
