I feel great, everyday I feel less and less pain. My incisions never hurt since day one and my stomach hasn’t been bloated. I can drink like a 4oz cup of chicken bone broth drained. Plain Water is the hardest for me because I’m not thirsty and I get a little stuck feeling when it lands on my pouch. It only lasts a second but I really dislike the feeling. So far I haven’t felt hunger or fullness. I just try to sip my Protein Shakes and I was able to drink a whole Premier Protein bottle today by drinking 1oz every 20 min. Tomorrow I’ll aim for another Protein Drink, more Water and a cup of broth. how much are you drinking?

Hi All!

I had my procedure on the 21st as well! I am tolerating all my liquids well and pain is under control for the most part. I have one incision that is still very sore. I am guessing this is the incision where they pulled out the stomach. This incision has a small bruise but swollen. I have 5 all together and this is the only one that is problematic. Is this normal?

Yea, the biggest incision or the one that has been tugged the most with instruments is usually the most painful. For me it was the one under my breast bone, this puncture was used for the liver retractor and although it doesn’t hurt superficially the actual muscle underneath is pretty sore but everyday hurts less and less.

      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! 😞
