My Surgeon Gave Me a Gold Star for the Week! LOL!



Recommended Posts

I think it's mostly gas pain and port site pain. Today already seems to be a little bit better. I was just REALLY tired yesterday. I am going to try to get up and around a bit more today. Showering helped a little. Made me feel more human.

Hey, I am a twin mommy, too! It's so fun, isn't it? :(

Wow! Yep having twins is great! How old are your twins? I have six year old b/g twins. They don't look anything alike!! I also have a 15 year old son! :(

I have a 5-year-old girl and 16-month-old girl twins. It's been kind of difficult because they don't understand why I can't pick them up yet. :( They are fraternal. One twin could actually be the identical twin of my 5-year-old. haha!

That is so funny. My six year old boy twin could actually be an identical twin to my 15 year old!! Funny how that works out!

You are inspiring to us all..:driving: I too have had surgeries, c-section, abdominal hernia repair that turned out to be endometriosis and c section adhesions, total hysterectomy, broken tib/fib, ... My docs said this would be nothing compared to them, and I have had to reassure my husband of this. I couldn't lift a gallon of milk after hyst do possibility of adhesions for 4 weeks. Family and friends gave me crap about everyone they knew doing things before I did, but I don't have scar tissue or complications and its been 2 years..

I had never heard of the liver issues until now, but know that when I had an ultrasound two years ago they mentioned my was large and had spots on it,, why didn't they tell me what caused it?? No one mentioned it was because I was overweight,, I guess I really need to start the pre diet pre diet or I won't get a gold star...:incazzato:

Hope you healing is uneventful,, wishes of willpower and determination to you:biggrin:

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
