Recommended Posts

So glad to hear you both are doing well. I'm so excited, but can't believe it is really true and just a few days away. Btw, passport card came today, so I'm all set

We had the swallow test today, and everything went well. We moved into the hotel today. It is beautiful. Things are going well for Jennifer and me. There is a third lady with us who was a band to sleeve revision. She is fine too. Dr. Kelly had one sleeve surgery today, and we had a chance to visit and talk with her family and provide them support as well.

The first day was really hard for me, but everything else went really well.

Omar is a doll isn't he? He was so sweet to me, looking after me very well. I love Dr Kelly & his team!

Omar came by today and brought a lady who gave me a pedicure and a manicure on my SO. They have taken very good care of us. My SO keeps telling Dr. Kelly that Omar deserves a raise.

Today, we were talking to a lady in the lobby who is in Tijuana for cancer treatment. Omar offered to drive her to the Oasis Hospital just above where Dr. Kelly does surgery when he was bringing other people to the hospital. Two nights ago, when everyone went to dinner, anything they didn't finish, he had wrapped to give to the homeless. He is a very, very kind man.

I'm flying out Friday and having my surgery on Saturday. I'll be there until the 4th also!!

I met the lady and her family that had surgery on Saturday. I probably won't get to see you again until you get to the hotel, but we have been spending time with your aunt and grandma. You have such a lovely family.

Joe and I plan to go back and visit too. I set a weight goal that I want to reach before I go back to visit. I want to have my picture taken with Dr. Kelly again when I've slimmed down!

      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!!

      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! 😞
