Well WELCOME Nikki! I'm excited for you too! You are going to be so proud of yourself. In the beginning it's a bit of a challenge, meaning that you have to literally change your lifestyle overnight. . that is a bit tough, you have to relearn basically how to eat and drink. . but you know what we all did it and guess what? Once you "get it" your going to do so very well, like all of us.

Know that we are here for you. . for all your questions, for a shoulder to cry on, to rant and rave. . we are your cyberfamily, we understand, we've all been through it. . . so once again WELCOME and post away!:)

I am 7 months post op and Dr. Taller was my surgeon as well. He's super nice! Make sure you are strict with your Protein intake and overall liquid especially well in the hospital. And make sure u walk a lot! It all depends in how fast you are out of there. It's an experience I will never forget. Good luck! 2 more days for u! Keep us updated!

Hello everyone. I have been on here for a week and I love the support everyone is giving each other. I.am scheduled for June 10th with Dr. Tribetti here in new jersey. I here he is one of the best. It's being done at Hackensack hospital which is the absolute best. I am counting down the days to the road to a healthy life. I also can't wait to be able to go into a store and buy a pair of paints without them.saying "we don't carry your size but we can order them. Thanks and good luck to everyone.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
