I pick it up on Friday and I am going to double check if anything else is allowed. I can have 3 to 4 Bariatric Advantage shakes a day.

I am so excited! Surgery in the USA. I'm in Illinois. Mine is approved through insurance. I am a revision of sorts. I had a failed lapband that came out in December.

I live in Tampa Florida but my procedure will be done in Plant City, FL. My surgeon the head surgeon and he will be using the da Vinci robotic device for surgery. I'm very confident in my surgeon but I'm still scared. I keep telling myself that the good outweigh the bad and the longer I remain morbidly obese the sooner I may die and not see my three small children again. If you don't mine me asking, why did the lapband fail? I didn't choose it because I didn't want something left inside my stomach.

My band was great until I got pregnant. My pregnancy was a complete surprise as I suffered through infertility for years. I was only 11 months out from surgery and down 80 pounds. I let Fluid out for nausea issues. A few months after having my son I started refilling and long story short it was too tight then too loose over and over and it took it's toll from February to when it had to come out in December. It slipped which means the stomach comes up over the band. I also developed a hiatal hernia so reflux was unbearable.

      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! 😞
