Recommended Posts

Well PRAISE GOD I'm not the only one who is moody.....pms-ing doesn't help either. It seems as though everything is just making me wanna go retreat to my room and lock the door behind me....I probably should have had this done during the school year, but since it's summer vacation, I have a 13, 10, 7 and 4 yr old making all kinds of noise, fighting over kittens, fighting over tv, fighting over EVERYTHING. LORD give me strength. :confused2:

I just want to say that I'm so glad I found this website! It's been awesome!!!! :thumbup:

Hello

I am so glad I just signed on to read your comments about emotions. I was just banded on 6-30 so I am 3 days out and a total wreck. Totally not like me at all. I am the most optomistic upbeat person you would ever want to meet. I have never had children so this post surgery blues is all new to me. Thanks everyone for sharing all of this with me...I was aware of possible depression but I did not expect it this soon after surgery. I am going to be optimistic and hope it passes by the end of the week....

I;m not quite sure how estrogen works but if it is also stored in my fat does that mean I will never be able to lose the weight from my man boobs? cuz everytime i lose a pound i get more estrogen and grow a little more bob right? just wondering.

Hello Avon

Hang in there. You are probably right about the kids being off school and adding extra stress to the situation but you make sure you sit them down and tell them that Mom really needs them to support you during this. Its OK to retreat to your room for a break every now and then. Do things to pamper yourself. Bubble bath, pedicures are geat too... Take care

I seem to be on the up side of things the past couple of days, but only after having a MAJOR meltdown Monday afternoon and almost telling my husband to move out!! Not a good thing. He doesn't understand this roller coaster AT ALL and gets very frustrated sometimes because he never knows who his wife is going to be when he comes home after work. Maybe I should make him come on here and read so he knows I'm not the only one losing m mind!!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
