An on the third and very nervous

Yes I started on shakes (awesome) 4 weeks ago and lost 16 lbs people now make me question my decision. But I know in my heart this is what I need to do. I'll say I am very scared!

Congrats Furby!

I am so jealous of all of you June sleevers! I don't go until July 9. In actuality, though, I know the time is going to fly by.

I woke up normal in room and had to get up and walk around the hospital, but who knows what I did or said in the recovery room. They knew I was concerned going in and said they have seen it all before, no worries. No one said anything to me and The last thing I remember is counting for the anesthesia.

Will they let you wear a small stud? If not put it back in as soon as you wake up. Doubt if it will close in just a few hours.

When i had my gallbladder out i had a ton of piercings..(tongue, navel, ears, nose) and for my nose i used a lil bit of fishing line and tied a knot and cut off the excess. I couldn't even tell i had something in my nose like i do my stud now. This is my second time having my nose pierced so i know for a fact they close fast (faster then most). They also make clear plastic studs that can be used for surgeries..i think the thing they do not want is the metal. I would confirm if you can just use a clear plastic stud or if not think about the fishing line or something similar and when you are in recovery you can probably put it back in. That is something ill have to ask my surgeon when i see him!

      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! 😞
