My surgery is TOMORROW!!! I also thought using the long weekend to recoup was a great idea! GOOD LUCK!!

Great!! I've read so many posts from people saying they are having no pain, so reassuring after reading about ones that weren't so lucky with pain.

I'm curious. Since they don't want us taking pills what do we take for pain?




Liquid pain meds :)

I needed up needing to take my liquid pain medicine but it wasn't for surgery pain. It was more for a severe headache I developed and didn't know what else to take.

      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! 😞
