So we went grocery shopping today. I don't start my liquid diet until august 1st but I'm going to start low carb and gluten free now. I have had a bad skin allergy all of my life. Along with diarrhea and ibs. After ruling out several things over the years, not much left to cause it, so I'm gonna give gluten free a try! Another positive about getting the surgery! Times a ticken' August sleevers!!!

I have problems with diarrhea and IBS too, and like you, a cause wasn't found. I went almost gluten free, and it seems to have helped. Hopefully it will help you too!

I'm hoping it's the cause of these horrible itchy rashes too! Maybe I'm asking too much...

Good luck with your search. Have you tried laundry detergent for sensitive skin. My mom had to change soap, fabric softener, anything that touched her skin before she figured it out.

Use All free and clear, no fabric softener, dove sensitive...blah blah blah! My mom used to have to bathe me in phisoderm when I was little or it turned into infantigo. They don't make that anymore. So...yup, itches like a S.O.B!!

Hey everyone!

I am scheduled for Aug. 1 with Dr. Barker in Dallas, TX. I am 5'5" and weigh about 274. I want to lose at least 100 lbs., hopefully 120. I just had my first consult on June 29, have my stress test and nutrition consult on July 20 and surgery scheduled for Aug 1. I am really excited, but really scared too. I am a worrier by nature! :rolleyes: I hope we all do great, and let's try to keep each other updated! So glad I found you

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
