:(Please pray for me... This all starts in 2006 I had lap band lost 150lbs but was so sick the entire 2 yrs.. It was removed in 2008 when I gave in to my body shutting down.. It had slipped... now I have gained 165lbs back and I am trying to get vsg..yes I understand it was my fault to haved gained all the weight back but at the time I had alot of stress in my life and gained instantly 30lb in fluids the 2 days I was in the hospital when the band was removed.. I was starving to dealth... now I was getting enough money back on taxes to get the vsg and have an appointment for 4/18 with Ramos Kelly... well that said.... I got a letter that my taxes are delayed for further checking... I don't owe anything but my understanding there is problems with my income.... PLEASE PRAY THIS GETS CLEARED AND I GET MY MONEY AND GET MY SURGERY....

THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS

Sending all my best wishes on getting your taxes in time for your surgery! I had to delay mine by 6 months and it felt like torcher to wait that time.

I had my surgery on the 18th with Dr. Kelly would have been great to have you in our group. All the same it will happen for you and I am wishing you all the best. I had to use my taxes along with a loan from my 401k so I know how it is. I hope it happens soon waiting is the worst

Hugs and praying it will all work out. It isn't your fault the weight is back. The band failed you like it did me and so many others. I really do pray you are able to get your sleeve.

Well folks I still need prayers... I have yet to get my return and the IRS can not give me a reason... This is BS... I call every other day and nothing after the initial 30 days they send a message to a different dept. and say to give it another 30 days... That was on 3/25 so I am in waiting... I have talked to Sandy and She is waiting until 4/8 to hear back from me...

I just really need prayers.. This has gotten me so down that I am not wanting to get out of the bed..

I am a mother of 3 (son is 15 and twin girls 10) also 1 of my daughters has Down Syndrome and needs extra care.. I have got to get healthy so I can take care of her.. My mother in law lives with us and takes care of the things I can't.. helping her bath and stuff... But that is my job..

PLEASE KEEP ME IN YOUR PRAYERS..

Angela

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
