I am new to this and am looking for some support going through this rather difficult time. I am 2 wks post op and I am feeling kind of regretful. I know this is a life altering procedure that I thought I was prepared to handle but I can't seem to get rid of the nausea and the discomfort of the knot that sits below my chest even after just sipping Water. Any suggestions?

South Jersey here and just one week out! 10/17/17 no nausea no pain just a little sore. Heading back to work tomorrow. Sorry you're having a tough time but I think it will pass! Sip sip sip tiny sips! Also I added a 1/4 cup Apple juice to about a cup of Water. Makes it easier for me to drink.

Don't regret it! Take smaller sips, or suck on ice. I was sleeved in December and I had the same problem up to the point where I was in and out of the hospital frequently for dehydration. That stopped about after 7 weeks out. Now I'm almost a year and almost at my goal already.

You'll get through it! No worries. Feel better.

      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! 😞
