I too am having surgery with Dr. Alvarez on Aug 13. Now that I know for sure the surgery is on (except that I am still working to get my passport on time), I am coming to terms with some of the permanent changes I will be facing.

Tameka and Joyce, I am really excited too. I am trying to balance my excitement with the sobering reality of the behavioral changes I will be making. I realize that this is a tool to help me change and not a "quick fix" for a lifetime of poor eating habits. At the same time, I am a little giddy! :)

I really love all of the videos on Dr. A's YouTube channel. That was a huge point of comfort to me. Being educated about what I am considering is incredibly important to me. Now let's just hope I get my passport in time! :)

Time will go by quickly and we will begin a new way of living :) Much luck to you in the before surgery "mind prep" phase, that is where I am at now.

My passport arrived in about 3 weeks when I got mine. My friend got one not long ago and it came back in less time than that. You should be fine to get it in plenty of time.

      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! 😞
