First off, CONGRATS!! This is exciting. I was sleeved on Jan. 14th & feel great. A little exhausted here & there but doing wonderful. The day of my surgery I woke up @ 4:00am, sat & cried in the bathroom by myself, said a couple of prayers & then that was it. I knew I was doing the right thing. I am so glad that I didn't back out of this. I can already tell the awesome feeling in my step & my husband is already telling me how wonderful I'm looking. (I know, he's only being supporative but it makes me feel better.)

Hang in there girl!! It's going to go awesome & you're going to LOVE it. I'm already saying a prayer for you. I'm excited for you & can't wait to hear from you after you're up & running.

Keep us posted!!

Best of luck honey, you'll do great, don't know of any one who wouldn't be nervous, it's a normal response! Even I was as nervous as a june bug the day of my surgery and this was my 18th major surgery! You'd think i was used to it huh? Nope not at all. . .but before it began it was over and I'm 3 weeks out now and have lost 32 lbs. . You'll be ok honey, we are all here for you if you need us. . . Godspeed and God's blessing to you!

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
