Ugh! I am so upset! I just got a call from the Doc. office. They said my EKG had an abnormality. Now I have to go see a Cardiologist before I can have my surgery. I just want to cry. I am kind of upset because my EKG was done while I was sitting up, not lying down. Can't see the Cardiologist till Monday for a consult. If they do any testing it could be 2 weeks. That would put me into March. I know nothing is wrong but I also know that with my family history of heart problems there is no way the Doc. will just do another EKG and say it's ok.

Also, my husband travels every week. He was taking a week off to be with me so we need to know ahead that I will have it or not. So, sadly, at this point, have no choice but to push it back at least a week, probably two. On day six of pre-op. Now have to keep it up for an extra two weeks. :(

Will make an exception tonight and have a glass of wine but will stay with the diet.

Thank you. That means a lot to me right now. Maybe it's for the best. Leaving in the morning. Have to go out of town for a family funeral. Several people depending on us right now. Sometimes things happen for a reason.

Mine is on Tuesday the 19th. I was really nervous before the surgery date, now I'm like LET'S DO THIS!!! I think I'm mostly excited to just be not hungry. This pre-op liquid diet is pure hell for me.

      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?

      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... :(
