I'm on April first, so my countdown is really ticking and I'm starting to get really anxious. Part of me is happy and part is like, what am I doing? I'm going to cut part of my stomach? I'm going alone to a foreign country to purposely hurt myself (well, temporarily). I know it's for the best but I am still anxious.

Hoorrrrraaaayyyy! Hi April Sleevers. I'm April 16, in MX. 5'2, 205 lbs. I just want to get it over with, I have tried MANY other things and I am just miserable. I want to be healthy and right now, I'm not. Just bloated and disgusted. Funny thing is people are like your not that big. Really? Cause my BMI is 37.5, I have high blood pressure and sleep apnea. So thanks but I want to take control now before it gets any worse. According to the Dr.'s, I am Obese - Class 2

I here you Cherrytree! I am 5'3' and 215, and sometimes I ask myself if I am big enough to have this surgery. Then I remind myself how different life will when I'm 80-100 pounds lighter. I haven't told anyone except my husband and kids. I feel like I should tell my family (parents, siblings, in-laws) because they're pretty supportive and we have a good relationship, but I'm worried that they will tell me not to have it done. So, I'm waiting until I have an actual surgery date booked to spring it on them.

I am new to the forum. My surgery date is 4/1. I started my liquid diet today. Found out Friday that there is an insurance problem. My husband is working on it but the hospital wants me to pay 24,000 by today.

      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! 😞
