My surgery is 2/4/16. I'm excited and nervous at the same time! Reading the various posts gives me reassurance that I can do this!

February 9th for me!! Getting super excited. Started my first week of 3 week preop diet. Working on getting lots of Protein, lots of Water throughout the day, and eating on a schedule to learn how to stop grazing all day long.

Good luck to everyone. I can't wait for success

My surgery is scheduled for Feb. 15. I begin my 2 week liquid diet on Monday. I am really pumped about the surgery, but at the same time I am nervous. I just found out yesterday that the surgeon who was scheduled to do the surgery is no longer with the group effective two days ago. I happened to go into the office yesterday and got the opportunity to meet my new surgeon and I really like him. He is able to perform the surgery on the same day, so I was pleased. Basically, the only change is my pro op appointments.

I would really like to keep in touch and see how you are doing. I wish you all the best!!!

Started my 2 week pre op liquid diet today. I am using chocolate and strawberry Protein Shakes (Bariatric Advantage). I had to come up with a schedule to get in all my nutrition, supplements, Water, and exercise. Plus I have to account for appointments. I am not hungry at all. Those shakes fill me up! I have already walked once today. I hope to maybe ATTEMPT to hit tennis balls for a little bit with my husband later. Please wish me luck. If anybody wants to be a buddy during this adventure, please let me know.

      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! 😞
