I am a retired nurse and spent most of my professional life working in labor and delivery. I cannot tell you how many times women get on the phone and talk about the terrible, near death, experience they had. I would just snicker because I had been with them and they had short labors, easy deliveries and no complications. I am not minimizing the pain of L & D but there is some gratification they get out of the exaggeration. My point is there are those that love to tell horror stories. Just click off and move on.

Just had my RNY this morning. I was definitely prepared to experience a lot of pain and discomfort. But let me tell y’all...i feel amazing!! Hardly any pain, no nausea, not much gas. So those who have surgeries coming up, DONT BE AFRAID! I am your reassurance that not every story is a horror story. Be brave and remember that it’s so worth it! So blessed!


I'm sitting in the hospital waiting to be discharged. I had no pain, other than feeling like i did too many sit ups, from the rny. I will stay in Mexico a few more days, then flying home to Seattle. So ready to be back to some sort of normal routine. Im so bored lying in bed at the hospital.

Thank you so much for this. I have surgery on the 23rd and have been having the jitters.

Mine was Tuesday and it was not that bad. The nurse messed with my IF and that hurt worse
Occasionally I do get a pain in my left side. I had more pain when I had the band 11 years ago.

      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! 😞
