    Tomorrow is the big day for us schedule for March 12. I go in at 5:30 am for a 7:30 am surgery time. I'm only slightly nervous. Feeling mostly content with my decision and ready to get this done and start recovery. I've lost a total of about 53 pounds, 40 on the 6-month supervised diet and about 13 (I think) on the two-week liver shrink diet. My tummy got smaller so hopefully that's because my liver shrank as it should have. I should have about 105 to 110 pounds to lose after surgery to get to my ultimate goal. I'll try to update at some point after the surgery.

    Good luck and best wishes to all having surgery tomorrow. Here's to a new life of living instead of watching it pass us by. Update here, as you are able.

    Congratulations on your surgery tomorrow!

    I’m super excited to start this journey. My insurance requires a 3 month program so I still have 2 months to go. I have watched many YouTube videos, researched websites, read books just so I will know what I’m getting myself into. I know everyone’s journey is different but many go through some of the same things. So my question is what advice would you give to someone who’s just getting started on this journey ? For example, I know Hair loss seem to be common among Bariatric patients, would you suggest taking Vitamins now ? Are there questions you would have asked your doctor but didn’t know to ask at the time ? Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😊

    Congratulations! I'm a newbie myself and my surgery date is March 19. When I went to my dietitian she had me to start my Multivitamin now. And she also had me to try out some Protein Shakes to see which ones I would like. I am so excited right now! I wish you the best in your journey to come.😊
