I wish i could help more in that department but i have never been a smoker. Have you tried the Patches, there is also a pill (not sure of the name) that helps ween you off. Try this: throw out whatever packs you have and dont buy anymore. I would hate for you to have complications with surgery because of your habit. You have a decision to make, whats more important: the length of your life or a cigarette. If you can answer that question then you can quit smoking. Tap into that will power that you have and fight for your health. Its not going to be easy but anything truly worth fighting for never is. I hope things work out for you.

Yes, I really wait the surgery . It hard to stop smoking after 34 years. I don't understand it seems that if some people have a hard time with things it always comes down to do you really want to have weight loss surgery. Everyone in life has different things to deaL with. We need to support others no matter their faults or issues.

I never implied that and what i originally said i deleted because i wasn't trying to judge you. All im saying is sometimes people arent ready that is all. I dont see how you read my post and thought i wasnt trying to support and uplift you. From what i say i was trying to offer you advice on quitting even though i have never been a smoker.

I'm sorry I took it the wrong way. Everything else is going good. I lost the weight I needed to, got all my meds in chewable. All my papers for work and ins are done. It's just this darn smoking I can't seem to kick. I'm going to try on my weekend really hard . I wrote a list of this I need to get done . Again I apologize for the misunderstanding.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
