Exactly what Vee said. It will pass I'm on day 12 today and believe I felt like you. But now I feel totally normal. Just waiting for 2 weeks to hot so I can get off liquids. That is hard in my eyes. But it's well well worth it. Down 12 lbs already.

Get up and walk every hour . Your Dr should have given you a prescription for nausea. I fortunately did not exp the nausea. Had very little gas. I have walked ever hour since I came out of recovery this past Tuesday. It will get better. Hang in there

Gas and shoulder pain are expected....they pump your abdomen full of air and it takes awhile for it to get out..air travels up so referred pain in your shoulders is also common

Thank you everyone. The pains I am having are very sharp stabbing pains just below my ribcage. They are debilitating. Have any of you had this?

I had and still have this pain but I had a herina repaired with surgery so I thought it was just because of that.

I'm three weeks post op but I definitely remember how rough the first few days are. I promise you things get better everyday and it will pass. Best of luck with everything!

      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... :(
