I just decided to have surgery 3 days ago so I can’t provide advice but I am SO excited for you! Good luck!

Congrats, the first 24 hours are the worst. Dedicate yourself to getting to 4oz of liquid an hour as fast as you reasonably can so you can be discharged.

Congratulations, my advice would be to start walking as soon as you can. It helps with the healing process and get rid of the gas you will experience. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress.

Cheers

Hey all!
Surgery went great without and issues! But let me tell you gas pains are no joke lol. I've been able to walk more now that the anesthesia/pain meds are working its was out of my system. I'm struggling to get fluids in but I'm doing better. Thanks again for the kind words :)

      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! 😞
