The call that I've been waiting 7 months for



Recommended Posts

I got a call from my surgeons office yesterday with my surgery date...........Sept 2. I don't really know how I feel right now, I'm sure in the days and weeks to come I will feel many different emotions. :(

I feel the same way. I have been approved for VSG on the 24th of November. I feel like its forever and now I am second guessing myself. I feel like a loser because I cant lose the weight in the gym and these emotions have been making me eat more. I am also a little depressed/scared about not being able to eat as much anymore. I love to snack and am not sure if I have the will power to stop.:svengo:

Congrats on the call, that is wonderful news. It is normal to feel scared, excited, leery and just about any emotion under the sun. Just make a list of pros vs cons and I think you will end up with a smile on your face. Don't forget to add the fact that your insurance is covering it to your pro list, there are so many people here that don't have that option or like myself I have the coverage but I don't meet medical need requirements.

      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! 😞
