Hi everyone! I live in Brea and will be banded by Dr. Kelly Francis on 03/25/08 at FVRMC. I actually have my first face to face appointment with her tomorrow. I've attended all my classes and have had my cardiac clearance. I'm really looking forward to this process! Wish me luck! And good luck to all of you in this process, too!

I had my second fill today. I'm really hoping that tomorrow I can feel the fullness when I start eating again. I lost anoth 7 1/2 pounds, so that was something good. Hope everyone is doing well too.

Support group meetings? hey gals, I know alot of people have asked about support meetings, I was just wondering if you all would be interested in doing one. I have not been able to attend my support meetings through the doctors, since they are only available on Mondays. I can't do Mondays. Let me know. You can email me directly too if you like. I was hoping we could set something up for this month. I would really love to be able to chat face to face with others who know what I am going through.

      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! 😞
