How many times have I pondered this question? Well after a long time reviewing it watching the actual surgeries on line talking to others on this site. The Sleeve is the way to go for the long haul!!!! I am scheduled for sugery on 2/24/10 and I have started the pre-Op diet and so far doing well. I have been to the gym 6 days in a row and feel better than ever. My wife and I are getting up at 4:00 am having Decalf (Yuk) read our bibles for about a half hour or so and then head to the gym. Spend about 40-45 minutes doing cardio Tread mill or Eliptical, and some weights. Head home shower and I have to fix a shake for Breakfast while my wife who is fit, 5 miles a day type of person can eat anything. I can't wait to show her up some day.... Ha! Well anyway I have shakes for breakfast and lunch for these 2 weeks and at dinner eat lean and green type meals. The nutritionist told me to put a watch at the top of my plate and what ever is on my plate for dinner analyze it and devise a way to eat it in 1/2 hour. My normal mode is WOLF, so this is hard. Yesterday I left half a pork chop on the plate and I remember when 3 were normal, eating slowly really works. My plan is to keep a log of my journey weather anyone reads it or not it will keep me focused on the end game. Well time to go....

      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!!

      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. ย 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 ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜ญ. 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! ๐Ÿ˜ž
