One Week Down!!



Recommended Posts

Hey all,

I know I don't post much here, but I wanted to let you all know that I had my surgery one week ago today!! I have lost two pounds, but that's not really my concern right now. I saw the surgeon and got my first fill appt. He said everything was looking good. Haven't been hungry in the slightest, but I have had some pain in my left shoulder.

I'm drinking sugar-free Carnation instant Breakfast for my Protein and am on full liquids for another week.

Thanks for all the info on this site, it has been great!

Hi Jacee,

Glad to know you're doing well. I drink the same Carnation drink and I love it compared to the Protein Drinks my husband drinks when he's working out.

Today is day 7 for me...and I actually got hungry yesterday. freaked me out...maybe i'm not taking in enough fluids.

keep up the good work!

Yeah, I was banded April 3, I went through that pain for 2 weeks...It's gas, and my doctor told me that I had to walk it off...I also went and got some Gas Relief over the counter and that still didn't work...So my doctor told me that it wasn't that type of gas, it was the gas they use during surgery and it needed to come out...But that pain hurts like hell

      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! 😞
