How many laproscopic holes?

Ok, if everyone else has 5 and I have 4...where did the last one go?

I have six. I thought I had 5 until my belly button started itching on 3rd day post op. No one can really see anything when I ask them to look but I can feel it now so check that belly button throughly.

I have six. Four small ones and two larger ones.

Still a winner with 7 but you can't see them anymore except for the one at the bottom of my breast bone and it's tiny, like I was stabbed with a large gauge icepick. So NBD my friends!

I have five. Three are very small and can hardly be seen. One, right above my belly button, is visible but looks like a bad scratch. The main one, the one on my left side, will be with me forever. It is the main entry for the surgery and was the bane of my existence following my surgery. I had to back the wound twice a day and it took forever to heal.

I have 6 .. probably because my surgeon ( Dr. Laura Doyon, an Angel !) had to repair my hiatal hernia. No more acid reflux either... I’m obsessed with pineapple and navel oranges .. I don’t have fruit every day, a few times a week but I Jones for those darn oranges!

      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! 😞
