I am so sorry feels that is an awful feeling. How much is your surgery total? Don't give up girl you will get there.

The insurance person in the doctors office said its $30,000 + with anastesia, surgery and hospital stay....

It's not so bad after the 2nd day...Just keep telling yourself that you control the food and the food does not control you. I am on day 9 of the pre-op.

I think I'll be ok, I've been drinking Premier Protein shakes for 2 meals a day for 4 or 5 days a week for that last few weeks so this shouldn't be much harder.

Tomorrow I start the "Dreaded Two-Week liquid Pre-Op Diet". But I'm ready. I have my Protein drinks' date=' my sugar-free Popsicles and Gelatin and my chicken broth. I mostly have been eating two meals a day like this already. Next week on e 19th is my Pre-Op appointment and then surgery on the 26th.[/quote']

We are real close. I started yesterday with surgery on the 25th. I also did the same with shakes for two meals for a couple of weeks. Yesterday I had a terrible headache in the afternoon but so far today I'm ok. Best of luck.

      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! 😞
