Hi,

Yea!!! I found some people in Maryland. I live in Baltimore County. I am having my surgery on Monday :D

@Earthchick97. I am having my surgery at Holy Cross Hospital. It's about 1 hour from my home. I wish I could have my surgery at a closer hospital. Since our surgery dates are so close, it would be nice to have you as a buddy. Are you on a liquid diet now? JH is a wonderful hospital. Best of luck to you.

@Dawn - are you still loving your sleeve? I am a little nervous. I would love to ask you some questions. Now that my surgery is right around the corner, I just wonder what's next. What should I expect. Any tips or advice that you could share would be wonderful. I could really use a mentor.

Have a wonderful day,

Toyia

Hey!

I'm in Silver Spring Md and I will be having my sleeve 3/6/12 in Portsmouth, VA. I'd love to talk to anyone else who is going through the process of getting sleeved or has already been sleeved. I've fought so hard with the military hospital system and now that I have my date, it's kind of hard to wrap my head around it. I'm really nervous!

      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! 😞
