I've been belching, but not any more than before my surgery. I burp more out of the backside, but knew I would as that is a side effect of the duodenal switch.

Only 4 Days Post Op & 1 Goal Already Met
Bansheeflyer replied to Bariatric Baddie's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
That's great!!! That was my main reason for surgery. I was insulin dependent, with high doses. I've been off insulin since leaving the hospital. Surgery was 2 months ago. -
How would you rate the ease/difficulty of your first week after surgery?
Bansheeflyer replied to Creekimp13's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was a 5.... had a lot of pain. Slept in the recliner until I could lay in the bed. I moved very slow. Then again I'm 63, and age may factor into my recovery. I'm now 2 months out and at a 10. -
How many calories do you eat in a day?
Bansheeflyer replied to elliekay's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I'm in the same calorie area as you . Today I'm at 709 calories. I'm 2 months post op with a duodenal switch. I haven't gone over 1000 calories. I'm eating well and not holding back. Just eat until I'm satisfied. -
Can I live off sf popsicles?

At first I couldn't get enough popsicles. Even when I was in the hospital. Now it's more of a treat at 2 months post op. -

Florida sleevers/bypassers?
Bansheeflyer replied to sandra305's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Me, sort of. I'm 2 months post op DS. Had my surgery at Celebration hospital. -
I'm on the Celebrate ADEK had the duodenal switch. I gag on those chewables. I've been supplementing with One a Day 60+ I can go on the capsule except I need to order it online as the hospital pharmacy doesn't carry the capsules. I haven't heard of the vitamin patches. Sounds like an ideal option for vitamins.
