Hi everyone. Well it is almost here. Tomorrow is my surgery. I have been fortunate as my surgeon only requires two days of Clear Liquids prior to surgery. I do admit I am hungry but it hasn't been too bad. I am nervous yet excited. All of the positive comments here have helped me so much and I really appreciate them. I will keep you posted as I continue on this journey. Thanks again to all of you!

I wish you success! Good luck tomorrow, I hope it all goes well.

As for the pre-op diet, Now that it is over, I am glad I did it for the two weeks, nothing but shakes, broth and SF Jello. It was so hard but dropped over 20 lbs so to me it ended up helpful. I would not have said that in the middle of it though while going through the detox/withdrawals. It was so hard.

Please keep us all posted on your surgery and success!

Colleen

      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! 😞
