Signed up a couple of weeks ago and and just now found the introdution section. Better late than never i suppose. I went for my seminar on august 9, 2011. I had my first dr. appt on august 15, 2011. Started my pre-op diet on august 19, 2011. My surgery is set for this friday sept 2. I am very excited , but nervous at the same time. My starting weight was 244, i have lost 10 pounds so far on my pre-op diet, so now i am at 234. I am 38 yrs old. I have been married for 17 yrs, and have two beautiful daughters ages 12 and 10. I had a heart attack on february 13, 2008, and a triple heart by-pass on feb 21, 2008. I am so looking forward to getting my life back on track so i can be here for my babies and grandbabies one day. I am very happy to be a part of this website, it is very informative and has helped answer many of my questions so far.

      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! 😞
