  1. Time to go in and get this surgery done in 1 hour. Cw: 372 Gw: 199.9 or 210 I hope everyone has a great day and I hope to get this done smoothly and share my experience with the group and new members.
  2. Last Question before surgery... How was your pre op? Did they do more blood work ? Drug Test? How long you have to wait before operation started? Did you stay a night? If so how many days? I know pack a bag... I am ready just curious what to expect tomorrow morning. Thank You
  3. Thank You both for your answers I really appreciate them. I finally got an exact date and time couple minutes ago 8/16/2023 5:30a.m. Hopefully the preop is not super long wait with early appointment sometimes those waits can be long.
  4. Two days away for my surgery! I have couple questions if you all don't mind answering. 1st Questions: How long did it take for you to get back to work? Job Type: 2nd Did you think you needed more or less time? How Long:
  5. 2 million buck! I love that statement. Talking about money how you all like saving the extra money you used to spend on going out to eat? I think my bill will go down 1k a month at the minimum.
  6. Thank You, and good luck on hitting the 100lbs by end of year. I don't think you need the luck you will surely hit it.
  7. Thank you so much. My surgery is in 6 days, so I really appreciate your response right now. The pain I no longer nervous about it and will deal with it when the times comes. I am just amazed at both of your successful numbers with weight loss at 4 months simply awesome! 65pounds & 76pounds in 4 Months you both must feel like a million bucks. Really moving around has to be so much easier now right. It must have felt awesome to see the scale leave the 3's and see the 2's big goal of mine. I think you both will hit those goal numbers.
  8. Appreciate your update, and nice job putting your brain at check on the carbs.
  9. Mine 8/16. It will be 3 days since surgery how you feeling now?
  10. Great to hear your doing better, and that Tylenol can manage the pain.
  11. Thank you everyone it was nice to hear how you all handled your pain. Appreciate you all for your time and answers.
  12. How the pain today ? My date 8/16
  13. Question how long did pain last after surgery? 2nd part did you need to refill on pain medication or were you able to go without?
  14. Thank you for responses. 3 weeks out would I be able to walk maybe 2 or 3 miles over an 5 hours span. Reason I ask my surgery on Aug 16th, and I got some disney oggie boogie tickets for my niece and nephew on Sept 7th. Wondering if I should skip event or rent a electric chair.
  15. 1st Question after surgery did you have brain fog? If so how long did it last? 2nd Question How long until you could walk 3 or 5 miles without any issues? I am curious because I got surgery coming up on Aug 16th, and upcoming appointments. Thank you all in advance for your responses it is really appreciated.
  16. I like seeing the sleep question being asked, and answered. Another quick question how long after surgery were you able to walk around no pain.
  17. Thank you all for your responses. I have been lurking in this forum for past 6 weeks, and have read most of your stories here and I appreciate it when people share, so I will do the same with my progress. Thank you all again.
  18. Hello everyone, I have an surgery date for Gastric Bypass on Aug 16th, and I have couple questions: Anyone have regrets? Were you scared before surgery?
