Thanks! He’s a rescue. We were just fostering him but he’s SO bonded to us and is now nervous around strangers so it looks like we get to keep him! 😍 I was supposed to go back today but after showering and trying to get ready I felt faint. I’ve been going on a couple 20 min walks a day but I guess this morning was just too much. My cals are also super low so I’m working on that. Planning to go in tomorrow. 🤞🏼 No shower. 🤣

@mandmom, the first couple of days was the worst for me. Mainly because of the gas pain in my chest. OMG. It will “pass”! 🤣 It is interesting hearing about the different ways everyone is feeling. I don’t think I’ve been hungry yet LOL I bet you will turn a corner in a day or so and start feeling much better! 🙏🏼❤️

I got to come home today. I am having trouble getting all the required Water down. I just don't want to drink it. The gas pains are gone. The gas was no where near as bad as I expected. I am having weird sensation in my stomach. I wouldn't really describe it as painful but it's like a deep growl, if that makes any sense. I have not thrown up but I do get a little nauseated when I take the pain meds. I get to add Protein Shakes next week and I'm happy about that. Overall this experience has went a lot better than I expected and I am so glad for that.Tomorrow is day 3 so I am sure the soreness may be worse tomorrow. Good luck to everyone!

Hello! Had my surgery on the 13th, came home yesterday. While they were in there they fixed my hiatal hernia and I had a hernia by my belly button that they also repaired. Biopsied my liver, said it was yellow?? Anyway, lots of pain and hard to get my Water down. Today I added a little crystal light to my water witch is helping get my water in. Been feeling really nauseous. I am liquefying my pain medicine in warm water which is been helping much more than to have it in cold water because it’s not grainy that way. Anyway, a little bit of a rough start out of surgery and up til now. Hopefully I’m turning a corner.

I was the same way. I’m a week out now and am finding I can drink more than an ounce at a time so that is really helping. Lol!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
