I had been doing really good on my pre-op diet and wasn't suffering too much ... Until this training. My schedule is so screwed up. I still haven't cheated but I am miserable and seem to be hungry all the time.

I'm fuming pissed right now. My coworkers are gossiping about my upcoming out of work days saying I'm going out for gastric bypass. I work with a small nasty group of people and I have been super careful not to dicuss my personal life here. Only my one friend at work knows (and she would NEVER betray my trust)that is why I'm going out but to be gossiping about it is messed up and makes me feel vulnerable. They have always used my weight as a gossip point and I'm just so tired of it!! My friend told me what the ringleader said and gave me the FYI.

Why do people have to prey on our vulnerablities?!? I've been heavy my whole life and I'm sick and tired of it. I wish diarrhea on all these haters ... my weight will no longer define me!!!!!!

Are you already on a Pre op diet??Here at BAMC they said they will require 2 weeks full liquids Pre op:/

My surgeon only requires 2 days of Clear Liquids the day before surgery. I start the clear liquid diet on sunday and I'm looking forward to surgery next week :) What does BAMC stand for?

      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! 😞
