Surgery went amazing!



Recommended Posts

Had my surgery at 1:30pm and my surgeon said I did amazing! The lord had is hand on me! I was scared a little bit but the anesthesiologist gave me something to calm my nerves. I had the chills and a lot of back pain due to the gas but I was able to get up and walk around the first hour I was back in my room and go pee without any help lol (TMI) but I can't wait for this journey to a new and healthy lifestyle! Prayers for you upcoming sleevers, you've got this!

Thank you Dr. paya at west hills hospital in Los Angeles ca.

Congratulations!

I had mine done on 8/4/2017, and I'm only 16. I was upset and nervous going in and on top of that, they couldn't get the IV to thread correctly and ended up getting a swollen arm and now I have major bruises!

It was worth all the trouble! I'm done 21 pounds!

Yes get it! Congrats! I think cause I've been sleeping all day mostly is why I'm up at 3 am right now lol.... but my left arm is pretty beat up too because they had to do more blood drawn when I got here and then my IV but it's worth it! And I'm 22 so we're both young and hopefully our bodies heal up nice! Good luck on your journey! [emoji173]️

      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! 😞
