So far no cramping or pain today. The incisions still hurt a bit of course but my abdominal muscles don't hurt as much as they did after previous surgeries. The only thing that hurts less, lol.

I'M glad I'm on sick leave for some more days though.

Eating liquid doesn't really warrant the label of "eating". It already gets on my nerves big time. Maybe I should start a ticker until March 18th when I'll be allowed to have real food again, lol.

😂😫🤤

Today the staples were removed from the incisions. Wounds are looking fine. About 3 kg less now on the scales now than the day before surgery, btw.

Dammit, I want to eat roasted red beets now. Even these awful McD burgers looked fine today, lol.

How large/where is your incision?

Can you have Soup yet?

After my revision I dropped more than 10lbs so quickly I looked terrible & I began to have loose skin in my face /neck 😖

I have the usual 5 incisions across the upper abdomen. Nothing big and scary.

I eat Soup and thin pudding and yoghurt and the like. Luckily only 3 weeks of liquids this time instead of 4 weeks.

Oh! When you mentioned staples I thought large incision.

Hoping it goes quickly 😌

There was a little bit of pain when these little suckers were removed but nothing serious. Wounds looked good all the time.

On a side note, at least the weather is good for a nice Protein hot cocoa.

Meh, unfortunately inner upper thighs are stubborn as hell.

How long were you on liquids/soup after your revision? I find it way harder to recover this time. Ok ok, I'm almost 4 years older now but anyway. I also have to battle way more cravings.

I admit to having a dark chocolate almond butter cup today that got to liquid in my mouth.

No dumping? I hope I am one of those who don't dump !

      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! 😞
