I just came home today from the hospital. I had a revision from lap band to gastric sleeve. Thanks so much for the encouraging words!

Wow! That is so exciting. What was it about the band that didn't work for you and why does Dr. Forgione think the sleeve will be better? The surgeon my insurance requires I go to doesn't believe the sleeve is a valid replacement for the band. "Failed at the band, you'e fail with the sleeve." That's what he says. I'm going to have to educate him about the sleeve. Thank you and I hope you feel good......

      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! 😞
