Hi Karen!

I am in Georgetown and I am just beginning my journey. I would love to have someone to talk to who has recently been though the process!

Wow! You got yours put in two days after I did. How are you doing? Im doing great and the initial pain is almost completely gone. I am off the liquid diet 3 days early and started smooth foods because I did not want to get sick at work. So far, so good. I've lost 7lbs since surgery and I feel good. I'm about to go for a walk. Hope you're doing well, too!

Hi, my name is Tina. I'm 50 years old and am just starting the whole proceedure before the surgery. I don't even have a date set yet. I'm wondering how you've handled things so far. Did you have to go through a bunch of stuff before surgery? How much have you lost so far? Are you having many problems post-op? Since you are very new at this, I'd really like your input! Thanks!

I was just banded on Monday, March 28--Can't offer much more than support.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
