LowCHO, I am so sorry to hear that. I am the same day and I am feeling pretty good. We seem to have the same stats and I am wondering, why did you have a drain?

Good to be a loser, ey

My surgeon tells me that about 3/4 people out of 100 actually need a drain so all of his VSG patients get one, just in case. No biggie, I'm just hoping it won't hurt coming out :-)

Maybe you can send a quick note to an admin or so?

I know ... seems like it's mulitplying :(

My appointment is Nov. 25th with doctor Alvarez. I am very happy.

I was able to move my surgery to the 25th so I'll have extra day to recover before returning to work. When do you fly in San Antonio?

Not sure why but I thought you were going with Dr. kelly or were we just talking about INT?

Hi I am having my sleeve surgery the Friday before Thanksgiving. I will be in Tijuana with Dr. Lopez.< /p>

Getting my sleeve tomorrow with Dr. Chitrit. Every pre-op test came out fine. A bit nervous. Probably will be more so tomorrow.

      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.  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! 😞
