I like to read. I was surprised to find out how little some bariatric patients concerned themselves with nutrition until their medical (and dental) health went south.

@kdjWItoSC We share the same surgery date: 6/13/2018. I stopped weighing myself after I noticed that I was getting different readings throughout the day.

I am having trouble getting enough Protein and fluids. My problem isn't keeping them down; I just can't motivate myself to eat or drink anything. Nothing smells or tastes good. My body isn't telling me to drink. I don't even notice any abdominal discomfort. Sometimes I have to remind myself that I had surgery. Nothing is tender. No pain whatsoever.
My increased need for sleep is what I notice the most. I sleep late and I take multiple naps.

That is what I'm experiencing, I just had surgery July 2nd. I just want to sleep.

      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! 😞
