Hey Ayla don't be afraid. If you have made the decision to have surgery it's to improve your overall health. I made a very hasty decision to have the surgery and only have a week to think over it and the day before I was like what am I doing and then I was like its too late to back out now as I had travelled a long way for surgery and now I am 1 year out and I couldn't be happier. Best decision of my life. We are all here to help you along your journey so hang in there.

Did everything go okay? I'm just nervous that my doc will cut me open and my liver won't be shrunk and he won't finish the surgery. I heard how that can happen. And I heard that some lady woke up in excruciating pain. But my mom had it at my age and she said your just tired. I've had surgerys before but this one is Life changing. I can't wait to live my life the way I want to.

I am also afraid they will cut me open and my liver won't be shrink enough. My surgery is Tuesday March 12th. I haven't 25 lbs since first seeing the surgeon. I had a 3 week pre op diet, did great, then my surgeon got the flu and my surgery was moved out 2 more weeks and I haven't done so great. Part of it was feeling depressed due to being rescheduled. I have maintained the weight loss but I am still scared I might have re-enlarged my liver. What does everyone think? Some post say they didn't even have to do a pre op diet.

      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! 😞
