I finally received my final approval--finally! :cheer2: :humble::peace: :roll:

I am scheduled for surgery for June 6th and was on my pre-op diet on my surgeon's insistance. He said he would get my surgery done and that was that! What do ya know?--a surgeon that says what he means?!!B)

I feel like a real "Jewel of June"--not just a wannabe or fake costume jewelry :D !!

Look out world! The Jewels of June are heading your way!!!!!:car:

I think rather than "quick" it was "last minute". I started down this path in Feb.

I didn't know I could hold my breath this long!!!! Thank you for the good wishes.

Valentina

I'm excited and freaked at the same time. At this point the 6th can't get here fast enough so I don't have to drink these sweet drinks for awhile. I love something sour.

I'm down about 4-5 pounds. :cheer2:

I will be in NYC on the day of your surgery . I am taking my daughter and her family to "see the dinosaurs". My three year old grandson is crazy about them, so before I get into that "tired" stage after surgery, I am taking them on my daughter's birthday.

:car:

I will think of you ofter during the day, I am sure. I'll be with you--only a whisper away.:amen:

Good luck staying on the pre-op this weekend. You didn't come this far to blow it now!:boxing:

      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! 😞
