Tell your mom the surgery has a mortality rate that is less than gallbladder surgery!

With my parents' date=' I focused on how this will help my overall physical health. Arthritis in my knees, acid reflux, thryroid issues, etc.[/quote']

Thanks Raven21

Today I finally had a last hurdle, my stress test. I have my appointment with my surgeon on Thursday and a date for surgery -Dec 6. I didn't have my sleeve class yet with the dietician and nurse but it will probably be next week. I am debating whether to pick chocolate or strawberry for the Protein Drink they supply for the week before surgery. Mostly I am wondering which I would be least likely to get tired or sick of.

I am a list maker and planner. So I was thinking if we brainstormed maybe we could help pre and post op be smoother. So here are some of my thoughts, please feel free to add to it.

So what have others done to prepare for surgery? What Protein drinks have you tried? What 'gear*' have you thought about getting?

* drink shakers, food measuring, smaller utensils, exercise equipment

Considering we are getting surgery in Dec, how are you prepping for your holiday ahead of time with shopping?

How are you altering your schedule and when do you think you will be doing most of your regular obligations again?

The people you haven't told yet but are planning to tell, how and when are you going to tell them?

It received some great advice from LovelyPea. I told her that my mother was nervous about me having surgery, she told me to remember you're going this to improve your health. She suggested taking photos of myself. I took the photos with bra and panties on all view. All I can say is OMG. I've never taken a full length picture if myself; seeing this really gave to the perspective I needed. It's about improving my health. Dec 10th here I come. I can't wait to take photos along the way. Excited!!!!!

      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! 😞
