March 2018 Success Stories



Recommended Posts

I’m 5 days post-op. I’m having a down day. I haven’t had a BM in over a week and emotionally I’m struggling today. I had the sleeve and hernia repair. I have 6 incisions and my right side is still in pain. I haven’t taken any pain meds since I came home Sunday. Stomach is still swollen. Today is tearful for me. I’m all over the place.




Congratulations on starting new chapter in your life . My surgery was 3/7/18 I am now 2 weeks out. I do not have problem with Constipation because one source of Protein my doctor recommended for me to take is NewWhey it comes in many flavors 3.8 Oz with 40 grams of protein. The ingredients in it keep you regular. I recommend freezes it in to a popsicle form easier to get down and get your protein and liquids same time Image1521685064.713592.jpg

Reduced from seven medications to two. Only need Remeron for depression and Omaprazole for stomach acid. I'd call that a solid win.

      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! 😞
