Recommended Posts

I had gas pains for a few days...and sleeping on my side was out of the question for about a week (and I'm a side sleeper!)

Getting discharged today. Had a little swelling near the biggest incision site but I’m assuming that normal and the nurse also confirmed it. Not much of an appetite but I’ll stay as hydrated as possible. I’m curious to see how much weight I lose in the next few months

Tiny. My largest one is just over an inch and the smallest looks like a pin prick. I’m guessing in a year I won’t be able to find them.

I have about 5 incision scars, really small. I’m a bit swollen but that’s expected. Just haven’t been able to sleep much

I had six including the pin prick one. Three are about an inch, two are like 3/4 inch.

      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! 😞
