Leaving For Surgery Tomorrow.



Recommended Posts

I I have finished packing for my surgery on Tuesday. I fly out to Dallas tomorrow. Though I know I want and need to do this the voices in the back of my head questioning the reasoning came down on me like a ton of bricks! B@stards!

I actually went into the office just to keep myself busy. I usually swim but it's storming pretty good.

Anyway I think I'm 20 lbs down from the pre-op diet. I have no desire to have a scale, when I feel good I'll be cool with it no matter the number. Though my goal is to get to one hundred something!

I'll keep you all posted. Dallas and the losers bench here I come!

I think last minute cold feet are a very, very common phenom.

I had my first 'almost panic attack' last night, and I still have more than 2 weeks to go.

I feel panic when I think about what I won't be able to do anymore (or what I imagine I will have to give up). When I feel the apprehension and doubt, I just think about all the times I lost and regained, and how I have totally failed at controlling my portions. I know I need to do this for my health. Good luck Aaron.

      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! 😞
