How are you doing, Bettyanne?

My surgery is on Thursday. I had some food throughout the last 2 weeks, but the rest of the time stuck to my diet...and now there will not be any cheating whatsoever. A couple times I thought I might pass out if I didnt' eat, and my son had been away for a few weeks...so i had a little bit of a cheat day with him and my girl...felt i needed that to be able to move forward....and I had been broke while he was gone, so I couldn't do a thing...the timing has all stunk.

So, how are you? I know how it can feel lonely sometimes....and when my children--son--is driving me nuts, life with a pre-op diet gets hard.

I'm doing pretty good. Recovering from surgery and pretty bored! I've been staying with my parents all week (they've been taking care of me lol.. I'm 26 but I still need my parents when it comes to this stuff lol). I get one more week off of work. Not sure what I'm going to do! Read maybe... Look for another job lol. Start thinking of recipes for puréed food. I feel like life is consumed by this surgery, but that's okay. On to a healthier life!

I was on the liquid diet for 1 month. Cheated two days before surgery with a stupid sandwich. I regretted it so much and cried for a hour and a half thinking I wasn't going to be able to get surgery. It ended up fine but I should never cry that much over stupid food! I had to wait 13 hours to get an answer if I could still get surgery. Eating that stupid sandwich just wasnt worth my misery. Lesson learned. I've never been more motivated!

13 hours!!!! What for? 2 days? Isn't 2 days long enough for a sandwich to be out of a stomache? I'm worried now....do I have something to worry about? Oh geez.

      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! 😞
