After two weeks the injections were a piece of cake lol. I am on my last dose today. It’ll be nice to take 1 thing out of my routine

I was so nervous about this I contacted my Surgeon's Nurse and I will have to do this too. I already have a needle phobia. Ugh, I'm more afraid of this than the rest. 😞

It really wasn't bad. They're tiny little needles.

In the grand scheme of life, lovenox is just an annoying pimple!

I got pills instead but I did get an option and I skipped on the shot, 30 days of sticking is way too much for me.

      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?

      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! 😞
