I live in Beloit, WI, but will be going through Froedtert in Milwaukee. I don't have a date yet, because I have to lose 27 pounds before Dr. Gould will do the surgery. Otherwise, I'm done with all of my pre-op appointments.

Well hi there! Welcome and congratulations :) I was just waiting for my insurance last approval but now they say VSG is not a covered service even though my Dr office called and had it approved. So I do not know where I stand at this point ither than SUPER disappointed,angry,sad etc. There is no other option for me. I refuse to have bypass and lapband will be too much running back and forth for fills over hour away.

Well keep in touch as we are really close(I am about 5 miles from Beloit) I use Rockford as a base as most people don't know my little podunk town ha.

Tstorm my appointment went good and she wants to go ahead with all the testing, so now I'm waiting for the referral sent to the insurance company to be accepted and I can move on to the next steps.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
