Congrats!!! My doctor was Dr. Scott Robbins. He works at Flowers Hospital in Dothan, AL. He is fantastic!!! He is very honest with you. He told us "the surgery will only do so much. If you're not ready to do YOUR part, then don't schedule your surgery." That meant a lot to me. To hear him say that it would do nobody any good if they had not made up their minds to follow the program the way it should be followed. He always took his time explaining things to us. I never felt rushed. This man has a great sense of humor!!! He' soooo funny!!! Great man, I love him to death!!! :wub:

      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! 😞
