February 22nd for me!!!! Finally after starting this process 10/11, my new life will begin on the 22nd. I can hardly contain myself!!! It's been a long hard wait!!! High Protein no/low carb pre-op diet begins Friday and I'm ready to get to it. I would like to try the liquid for a week just to get as close to 250lbs pre-op as I can.

Losers bench, here I come!!!!!

Haha, my surgery feels forever away now that some of you Feb. people are having it done right now, or in the next few days. You will be seasoned sleeve veterans by the time I head into the OR. :D

I have done a ton of research on this surgery and feel it is pretty darn safe as far as surgeries go. I am not nervous about the actual surgery or the life changes after surgery but every time I think about surgery I start to get nervous.... I am afraid to be put under. I have never had surgery. My husband and son say it seems like you are out for 5 mins.

Today is your day yay! I hope it went well for you.

I am getting my sleeve on Feb 25th. I am nervous but just because I have never had surgery before. My thoughts are I have tried everything, and I want to be healthy again. My concern is that I haven't told my side of the family because they are so negative about people having wls. So, my husband and his side knows because my mother in law just had it. She is doing great by the way, she has lost 28lbs in 5 weeks.

Good luck, and your not alone! :)

      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... :(
