Shelly I know how you feel, I was afraid of complications as well. I'm a believer, I prayed prayed prayed and left it I Gods hands. The last words I said as the Dr was putting me to sleep was , "God protect me" I had no complications and was back to work in 5! Days. I went shopping at costco on day 2! Praise Him!!

He did a great job charging His angels over you! [emoji4]

I'm just now able to drink without pain. Still
Can't drink a lot tho. I also had hiatal hernia surgery at the same time so maybe that's why.

I had an awesome surgeon that performed such a good job I didn't need a fairy tale "god" to help with me..
I went back to work two weeks later doing an extremely physical job and have had no issues.
Wasn't tired just a a little fatigued for a couple of days.

That's a rude statement. If you don't believe in God that's on you and your soul, but don't
Call God a fairy tale honey you may need him one day.

I took off six weeks. I was physically better after 4 weeks, but the fatigue remained an issue even for my first couple of weeks back to work.

Thanks all. I was scared said my prayers before I went to sleep and hope for the best three recovery and hope for zero complications. Doesn't matter how good the surgeon is you always have a chance of getting a leak.


Sending prayers your way. You'll do fine!

      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! 😞
