Hello all, I love in Katy and also going to true results dr riley. I just got approved a few weeks ago, got the call from his office and surgery is scheduled for May 24th. I'm on day 3 of my pre op diet and doing well. I'm really nervous and anxious. I'll ready to be my real self and lose this weight.

Looking forward to the support from this group and this thread.

I was just thinking that we should form our own support group to start doing activities and things we couldn't do before after everybody has their surgery . I think it would be fun. I believe Cassandra suggested it! This will keep us motivated and moving forward' ! I'm praying for all of us on this journey' we can do this

Maybe we should do a meet and greet or something but i'm not sure where we can do it considering we're either on pre or postop diets.

Hey ladies ! I'm so super excited .... I just had my last appt for my surgery . They will be submitting paperwork for my approval this week! So I pray all goes well. Then I am well on my way . I can't believe I'm going thru with this. I still have not shared it with anyone other than my husband . I will tell my mom like a week before the surgery. I don't need any negativity . I made this decision on my own.

Congratulations ! ! ! ! It does not take BSBC long to approve. It took them about 3 weeks or so to approve me. Did you do your psyc eval? Then your EDG? ...........GIrl I know what you mean about the negativity. Everyone around me saying you are fine there is nothing wrong with you but it is more then the physical apperance. I need to be healthy you know what I mean,

Yes I've had everything except the edg. I don't have to have it . I think most ppl say that because they may want u to stay where u are. Not having it ! I'm so ready to have this life change. Once I get my approval I feel like I can really live the life that I was meant to live . Ur right this is abt our health . I'm tired of breathing hard after tying my shoe .

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
