SUPER late on this. I think I was one of the few that had a miserable post op. Surgery was Wednesday 4/25 and was discharged 4/27. STILL in some kind of pain to this day but it’s nothing like it was the first 5 days post op. Everything hurt going down... no matter how small the sip or the temperature.

Today is the first day I can “eat” without feeling a ton of pain. Following up with my surgeon on Monday so hopefully I’m feeling better by then! Every day is a little bit better. It’s really a day by day process.

Im so sorry to hear this. Was it your actual pouch that hurt or was it pain from a breathing tube or what? Im glad things are improving and good luck at your dr appt!

Mostly my new pouch and incision pain. For some reason my dr made the incision where he removed my stomach really big 🤦🏾‍♀️ that’s causing me the most trouble now. Hopefully at 2 weeks out I’ll be feeling better. Thanks!!

I'll watch and wait with you. I keep thinking of the old song
ME* MP *HIS and that's Memphis, Tennessee. Someday I'll visit there, not necessarily for a trip to Graceland, I've just always heard it is a very pretty city😝

Still here, still hanging out with you all. Have next important appointment May 24th. meeting with
Case Mgr- Nurse Practioner- Dietician
Thought first a "Hi Glad to Meet and Greet You" appointment but another,poster is meeting with same,group at HER hospital, this gives me renewed hope that,like her, this could be an immediate pre* surgical!
You see, I have completed another C.O.E. bariatric program twice, and now having to switch,to new C.O.E. hospital, if they have no other requirements, I could be an early-mid June Bug RnY. Hope-Hope-Hope!😛

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
