Anyone have the same surgery date as me? Wondering how everyone is doing so far. I'm battling gas bubbles in stomach and burps/hiccups that kill. First 2 days postop were the absolute worse for me.

I was August 10th, and had the same thing. You need to walk as much as you can. I was better by day 4ish. Hot shower helped also. I'm one week post op today, and feeling really good. Hang in there!

See if you can have Protein Water. Either plain powder mixed into something, or a ready to drink version. How about Bone Broth? It has a lot of protein, and is sold with the Soup in Walmart. Hope you perk up soon!

Hey! I'm August 14 also! Lots of gurgling sounds and little burps. I think little burps have also been my indicator that I'm full. This morning I've actually woken up feeling quite 'OK' in comparison to the last 5 days. My incision Patches are starting to peel off (not sure what to do about that). Incredible shoulder tip pain still. I'm going to try a 15 min walk today to test my energy levels. Really keen to see how others are traveling ... I've felt really emotional the last 2 days..anyone else?

Had surgery Aug 15th and have taken the same path except I've had diarrhea if I change from Water to Chrystal Lite! Really! First 2days were the worst but got out and started walking and seem to be doing better! I was able to start full liquids today if I felt ok but that didn't quite happen but I did get 1 Protein Drink in. We will feel better soon!!!!

      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! 😞
