you had your surgery around the same time as I did.. Just wondering how are you progressing ?

Hi! Well it seems I've hit a stall in losing weight at the moment. I'm not sore anymore but I'm believed to have become hypoglycemic 🙄 which is awful so I've had to really be careful with anything I try and eat or drink. Other than that I've been doing pretty well since surgery. I have one spot on my stomach that is still really tender (not sure why.. maybe my nerves are still repairing). But keeping my head up and having hope I'll get off this stall I'm on. You ??

Welcome Crystal,

I'm new as well, just found the forums. We are on similar journeys. I had my surgery on 11/26/19. I didn't really have much pain, but I had a horrible open gallbladder removal surgery done in June of '19 so any pain I did have would have paled in comparison. So sorry you had so much pain.

Hope you are doing well on your journey. I've lost about 66lbs to date, but I've hit a horrible stall for the last few weeks. So very frustrating, but apparently very normal. So glad I found these forums so that I don't feel like a complete and utter failure.

Hi Crystal! I had pretty bad pain for 4 weeks. It did get better everyday. I even went to the ER a week or 2 post op and everything was fine. I guess we all heal differently and handle pain different. It’s normal. Just work your plan. I don’t have much of a support either. But BP is always here!

Welcome! This forum is amazing and so much support! Glad to have you. Luckily you didn't experience much pain from the surgery, because it was horrific for me. I still have tender spots I guess from nerves repairing etc. I too, have hit a stall but was told it's normal as well. There's plenty of support and encouragement on this forum! You're definitely not a failure 😊 we're here for you and along for the ride of your journey as well 🙋
