I'm having my sleeve done on the 21st. I'm so excited and I wish the day would hurry up and get here. I start my liquid diet on Friday the 7th. It seems like time is going by so slow..... Is anyone doing a video journal on Youtube? I am. My channel is VSGJean. I love watching videos of everyone's success stories. Let me know if you have a channel, I would love to watch and see your achievements.

My op is October 3rd and I am SOOOO looking forward to it! Does anyone know if smoking is bad for u before the surgery ? Should I stop now?

Smoking is bad PERIOD! My hospital won't operate on you unless you quit and pass a nicotine test. Why don't you take this opportunity to make yourself healthier all around and quit.

feels thank for the support im ok now

scorp dont be so hard on me pls. i apprieciate your concern but i already felt bad. im over it now

I think someone needs to be hard on you. When you have the sleeve, especially for the first few months you will not be ABLE to eat that kind of food and if you do can lead to some serious issues. Think of this the next time you want to put some greasy fried chicken in your mouth. I know this is hard but you have to buckle down and say NO!!

Today is clear liquid which is a bit harder than the Protein Shakes etc. but I am so happy about surgery that it isn't bothering me!!

Good luck to you all. I will check in when I can :)

I've suffered from acid reflux for years. I take the Wal-mart brand(s) of Zantac 150mg times 2 and Prilosec 20.6mg every night. If it is bad during the day I will take two of the Prilosec. I also have Tums/Rolaids "smoothies". I usually don't have to eat the Rolaids, but if it's bad at night, they are nice to have. Just ask the Pharmacist what the prescription dosage is for the OTC meds. I hope that helps. I did take Nexium, but my crappy insurance told me to take OTC meds.

      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! 😞
