Today Is The Day!



Recommended Posts

I'm sitting here waiting for one of my friends. She's taking me to the hospital for surgery. My surgery was rescheduled from Thursday to today. I'm not really nervous. I'm just ready to get this part over with so that I can begin adjusting to the many changes. I will talk to you guys on Wednesday. Pray for me and I will pray for you.

Thanks for the prayers and well wishes! I made it. Woohoo... I'm at home now and just sleepy and tired. I haven't been doing a good job sipping because it hurts going down. I got up and took a shower. The thought of much else is draining right now. I have a ball attached to me that slowly releases pain meds for a couple days. I think for women who've had children this will be a piece of cake (yuck), but if you're like me and hadn't had a lot of medical issues, it might be a bit overwhelming.

When I woke up from surgery, the thought of food was absolutely revolting to me. So much so, it was making me nauseous. And my friend was sitting in my room eating pizza when I woke up (double yuck)! She's a skinny cow! I was going to work Mon, but I think I might pass on that. We'll see... Thanks again everybody! Everybody will do great!

      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! 😞
