I had my surgery, technically yesterday, about 12 hours ago. It went very text book. My surgeon said it was boring for him lol. I was expecting the 4 incisions, but there’s one on my under belly... the “apron” is less and completely glued down. Anyone else experience this? And do you know why? My nurse should be back within 30 minutes and I’ll ask then but just curious if others got them as well

I’m on surgery day and actually doing great. Had my surgery 11 hours ago and I had two weeks of liquid diet and it took 3 days to get over hunger pain and sugar withdraw headick. I lost 28 lbs on my liquid diet and I could eat all the weggies I wanted raw or steamed and sugar free popsicle and Jello with crystal light drinks. Good luck and you get there it is so worth it. Look at long term result and you do fine.

I have that air/gas pains - they were horrible at first but have lessened a lot ... I am experiencing gerd from my Water but my nurse explained that the pouch is so so swollen that it’s temporary and should get better with each passing 12 hours

Thankyou for the encouragement and I’m glad your doing good . Yes I can have all the veggies I want too hopefully the hunger goes away for me too . It’s the hardest part smelling food at work . Lol the evening shift at the hospital likes to eat . I did get a bad headache tonight and I am having Charlie horses. Maybe I’m not getting in enough potassium ?

I had requested a private room so my husband could stay overnight, but they are reserved for icu patients first and then they move down the reserved list

      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?
