My surg date was just scheduled for March 13. I was previously scheduled for Feb 20 and then 27, but I came down with an upper respiratory bug that everybody seems to have. I just couldn't get rid of the congestion and cough. I had already gone through the pre-op diet starting 2+ weeks ago and now I have to stay on it through March 9, then 3 days on a clear liquid diet just before surgery date. I lost 11 lbs. in the 2 weeks I have been on the pre-op diet and that is very encouraging. I am hoping to get down to 160-170 from my current 265 (which was 276).

I would like to schedule my surgery for the first full week in March once my insurance is approved' date=' any other March Sleevers in the building? <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />[/quote']

I was scheduled for surgery today but they canceled it last week because I'm severely anemic. Such a bummer but probably for the best. I have to get an endoscopy and colonoscopy before they reschedule surgery date.

My surgeon does not require a pre-op diet but there is a very strict 6 week post surgery diet. They say being compliant is extremely important for proper healing. Good luck everyone!

      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! 😞
