Spike, I didn't want staples and made a big point of it. I just scar easily and drove my surgeon crazy with the no staples stuff. So much so, that I had it written on both of my hands when I went into the operating room, LOL!

No offense intended to innocent bystanders!

Ignore anything you don't want to read here, okay?

If I'm dealt a blow in an open forum, and my name is used in someone else's posts to a third party, it's pretty likely I'm gonna want it solved here. Why wouldn't the rest of you want it cleared up for all to see?

I never in a million years thought I would be targeted and I hope those of you who are wanting it to be overwith (that includes me, by the way), are never targeted.

It will be over when no one mentions it again, okay?

Piece of cake, Bettina! You can do it!

I go in waves, nervous---ready----nervous----ready...lol

Physically i am ready. I went out and bought all the post op stuff I was told to get. I only have to do one day of pre-op liquids...but I think I will try a few days pre-op..to get a jump start. The doc was impressed that I had lost weight since the last visit, so maybe I can wow him this time.

I was gonna do a last supper...did anyone else do that??

Ah, a last supper. I went to see my mother this past weekend to tell her and my sisters about the surgery. And to have my mother's cooking for the last time in a long while--rice, homemade bread, anisette cake.

But surgery's tomorrow and it's all Protein Shakes today.

Anyone else hear that the company that manufactures Carb Solutions is going under? Is the product still available anywhere? It's the only one I've tried and like it very much.

One more pre-op doctor's appt. tomorrow. I have to see someone about anemia, and then I'm hoping I'm good to go.

Of course, I also woke up this morning without a voice. I have a little over a week to get rid of whatever is causing it this time (happens to me a lot - usually acid reflux & allergies).

I don't know if I'm more nervous about it happening or about it not happening.

      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! 😞
