2 weeks.......



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Tomorrow I go for my nutrition and pshyc consult. I've been eating like crazy these past two weeks.

I'm ready for my new life to begin. Tonight I'm taking the dreaded pre surgery pic, this will keep me motivated for sure.

Feb 4th won't come soon enough. I found out 3 weeks after surgery, I have a business trip scheduled. I'm nervous about that, the food, the social nights with drinking (I love to drink).

Well, fellow Feb bandsters, our time is quickly approaching!

I see two choices, delay the surgery or cancel the trip. The drinking is empty calories and will not help. Three weeks is not enough time to allow the body to heal before you start partying. You should still be in the post-op phase. Sounds like an unworkable plan to me.

Unfortunately, this is my career so I will go and not drink, I'll be social and pay the "I'm not feeling well" card.

I still have 3 and a half weeks to go but I'm getting really nervous. I keep having dreams. I just cannot see me as a thinner person and I worry that I will be the one person to fail at this. I guess I just need some support.

      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! 😞
