My date is 8/27!!!! I'm nervous! I'm almost more so about the pre- op diet. I need the strength and will power.

I'm 32 and almost 2 years ago my husband passed away suddenly. Since then I have given up on me and life. I now hoping to learn to live again. I'm scared of complications and such but it's time. I know this surgery can't bring my husband back but it has the possibility of bringing me back. I owe that to him and my family and most important myself. 3 more weeks until my new birthday:)

Sounds like you've had a real rough time,well done for going for it. You are the day before me so we will be able to compare notes on how we are doing. Jacqui x

August 13th! I'm finishing up day 3 of the pre-op diet. So far so good, and I'm on vacation. I thought it would be awful, but it hasn't been bad. I hope this continues! Now I worry that the back end of thediet will be the tough time for me.

Good luck to all my fellow bandster buddies who are getting banded tomorrow, August 6th! I pray for us to have no complications and a speedy recovery! Hopefully, minimal if not zero pain and soreness too! And too all August bandsters as well :)

      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! 😞
