Today is my first weight loss consultation. I know what I want to do and didn't want to waste time by going to the information meeting. I know I want the vertical sleeve. I pray the doctor doesn't try to convince me of something else.

I'm nervous, excited and scared. This is a new chapter in my life.

Woo Saa!

Welcome and enjoy the journey. It's for life though I had a hard time being patient with the process and jumping through hoops. So glad I did though and you will be too!

Well first off good luck and congrats on getting started! I think it's good that you know what you want and why and I think your surgeon will respond positively to that.

It is completely normal to be nervous/scared/excited/etc. I think we all feel/felt that way! About a year ago I went to my info session and now I am sleeved and down 100 lbs... it goes quickly!

Keep us updated, you definitely came to the right place for advice and strong shoulders!

      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! 😞
