Chicago-Kane Ctr. Getting Sleeved Tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

Getting my sleeve tomorrow 9/4! Really excited. I started getting cold feet this morning but then had my boyfriend take photos of me front, back, and sides, clothed, then in bra and panties. The "am I doing the right thing" question went away the SECOND I saw those pictures!

I had to drink a 10oz bottle of magnesium citrate this morning which kicked in about 20 minutes after I drank it. I'm now in the loo pretty much every 20 minutes. I had a SF Popsicle - had to run to toilet. Drank some G2 Gatorade - you guessed it. I'm hungry, but 100% certain my system will be cleared out for surgery tomorow. :)

Reading everyone else's stories and the lists of "things I won't miss" are also allaying any pre-op fears. This site has been such a huge motivation, help, and resource. Thanks everyone for the support! I'll keep you posted!

      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! 😞
