I had my surgery back in July and everything went perfect, 1 night stay at hospital, only took pain meds for 2 day after i got home just to sleep and back to work 1 week after. I have no issue, no dumping etc.. the only thing is that everything at the beginning taste different. I purchase a ton of sugar free puddings, Jello, popsicles amd even the Vitamins and could and still can not stand them to sweet for me. Good luck message me if you have any questions

That’s great to hear from some who can relate to the same dr. I’ve heard good things about dr. Matei. I will be sending my papers in for approval next week let’s see how all goes. How much have you lost so far?

In total so far 37 pounds I am a slow loser but I am ok with that. I eat small meals about 4oz and that's it. but I have had chocolate and no dumping. The only restriction is I get full quickly, so at this time I only eat Protein. Good luck, keep me updated and if you have any question I am here.

I could lose more, need to start doing exercise. But I am at the stall everyone talks about. The good think no more high blood pressure meds, and feeling great. You are in good hands, the hard part is getting ready for surgery, and nerves. But after that it has been great. Good luck.

      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! 😞
