I got banded last Wednesday, delayed 2 days due to the Hurricane :rolleyes:

There has been some minor discomfort, not much. I had much more discomfort walking out of a Chinese Buffet!!

What I dont miss is the overeating and obsessing about food.< /p>

I am so glad that I didnt overeat today :rolleyes:

My journey just started, but so far so good.

I went on the liquid pre op and lost about 15 lbs.

My weigh in at surgery was 301 on Wednesday. Today, 3 days later, its 290.

I havents seen the 2's in along time!!

Thanks to all of you for sharing your experiences; it truly helps me!!

Good luck to you all!!:rolleyes:

I don't miss struggling to reach my feet to put my shoes on, I dont miss not fitting comfortably on airplanes, I don't miss walking past store windows and thinking if only I could loose this weight.

I don't miss worrying about whether I would be able to fit into the seat on the rides in Orlando when I take my grandchildren on vacation. I barely fit into the new Harry Potter ride (imagine someone jumping up and down on you trying to get the latch to click in place) last summer, and I put on even more weight after that.

I don't miss fast food either!

I don't miss eating anything I could get my hands on just to get that "full" feeling.

I don't miss my back fat rolls touching.

I don't miss having to shop at Lane Bryant.

I love hearing "You are so tiny now!"

If I can do it so can you.....

Today is one week!

I am soooooooooooooooo excited!!

You all have given my alot to think about: clothes, rides at the amusement park and even dips.

Until you experience what we experience, the food addiction, nobody can understand.

They can be understanding, but they just dont understand.

I DONT miss "hunting" for food while thinking about a binge: the perfect meal, which of course never happened and only led to terrible discomfort after overeating...AGAIN!! :angry:

Thanks everybody for your support and guidance.:rolleyes:

I couldnt do it without you.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
