Hi,

Wish we lived closer. We have a few things in common: VSG, animals and travel! I'm outside of Memphis, but travel through Atlanta all the time...Guess if you wanted to walk the Delta airport concourse with me..Second thought, Im usually running those, LOL!

My surgery is june 15th in Cancun. My family is going with me, and will be a mini vacation for them. Not so much for me, but happy that they are coming.

I would love to know about the single spider thingy. Is it suppose to be easier than the regular Vsg?

Oh, and you should know I do get stuck a couple of times of year in Atlanta. I've found a cheap place about ten minutes from the airport. It's next to a waffle house. Don't think it's in a safe area, but I just stick a chair under the door knob. Hehehe!

My husband and I also sponser a child from the Palmer Children's Home in Hernando, Mississippi. It's a great organization, and we're proud to be a part of it!

      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! 😞
