I actually have a video I made the evening before the surgery, but never posted. Maybe I could make another and put them both on...

I wish I knew how to use the editing software I would combine them and add in before and after pics, too.

I wish I could but I get stage fright and no-one wants to watch me studder while I try to explain my weight loss journey. LOL :blink: I haven't even put any before pics on this site because I never took pics while I was huge, all I got is my work I.D. and when I lose the rest of my weight I will post it for a Before N After. If you got a video on youtube I will look for it, youtube was one of the main encouragement to pursue weight loss surgery.

You Go Girl! :D

I'm thinking about doing it. I should have my surgery next month so I better get started. Have you watched Cecelia Lane's YouTubes? I really enjoyed hers.

Hi Tracylynn,

Yes!!!!!!!! I have thought about doing that as well!!!! I have watched tons of YouTube videos. My favorite are phillytomcat and thebypassman!!! I think I would feel like a real dork but then again I am sure the people that put their videos up felt like a dork too but we didn't think so. Lol

I'm just waiting to hear back from insurance so I can get mine scheduled!!

Lots of luck!!

      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! 😞
