Congrats! Do you mind if I ask you some questions? Is there foods you can't handle anymore? Does food taste different?? How much pain you were in??? I have one more weight appoint, I did everything I was suppose too. So next step is to meet with surgeon.

Of course I don't mind! As far as stuff I can't handleven it's a pretty small list right now. Mostly it's high sugar foods? Sometimes Peanut Butter makes me dump, also really sugary tastin sugar free foods will make me dump as well.. or at least feel like I am.

And as far as taste, most things still taste the same. I personally won't touch SF chocolate pudding ever again because I ate so much of it after surgery. So I think the taste thing is a person by person basis.

Pain levels.. well, while in the hospital it was about a 4 to 5 out of 10.. but you have the pain pump which helps (obviously lol). At home it was mostly gas pain and gas-x and walking alleviate that.

Good luck! Ask anymore questions, I don't mind.

      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! 😞
