Hey! So I had my surgery Tuesday and came home with hardly ANY gas pains, thank GOD, because I heard they are the worst!! I walked alot that day and yesterday the pain finally hit me. Soreness. And last night I started to get some gas pains. I take my gas x strips, but they seem to do.. absolutely nothing. This morning I woke up, well, I dont think I ever really slept, and I woke up this morning think I was going to throw up, watery mouth, went to the restroom splashed Water on my face and rubbed my phenergan on my wrists. I still am getting these bad gas pains and trying to make myself burp but they just wont come out!!!!

I have been drinking water, Vitamin water, apple juice and thats about it, yesterday I tried a little broth and blended some Soup up, but hardly ate either of those.

I'm trying so hard not to throw up b/c It's not good for the band!!!! support anyone?????!!!!

yeah the gas pain is the absolute worstt i know. gas x didnt help me at first, but i kept taking it hoping that eventually it would kick in.

if you have a heating pad, try that - i know it relieved some of the pain for me especially at night when i was laying down. if you dont have a heating pad, dampen a kitchen towel (or anything bigger than a washcloth really) and put it in the microwave to warm it up and use that.

walking around will help too, i just walked around my house every half hour and that got the gas moving around and started breaking it up.

      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.

      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 ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜ญ. 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! ๐Ÿ˜ž
