I was scheduled for the 25th but just got a call from my surgeon and he has a family emergency. Looks like I might be on the schedule for the 27th now. It is actually a blessing because we are expecting bad weather on Monday which was making me wonder how the roads would be on the way to the hospital.

Anyhow, I wish all of you the best on the 25th. Ill be joining you on your journey shortly after :)

I am scheduled for 7am Monday! Just finishing my house cleaning, had my "last meal," and now am enjoying the cuddle time with my 3-year-old twins. They go to my aunt's tomorrow night and I won't see them again until Wednesday. I'll miss those sweet faces.

The doc said no lifting anything over 10 pounds for a month, so it'll be hard, but I've been training them over the last month to climb in and out of their car seats, the tub, etc.

My 8-year-old son wants to stay at the hospital overnight with me to take care of me. Sweet boy. I had to explain their policy that he couldn't, so he's planning to be my big helper when I get home. :)

About to pack...I have a purse and that's it! Lol. Toothbrush, dry Shampoo, chap stick, face cleaning wipes, minimal makeup, kindle, and two pairs of undies. I'm going in wearing what I'll wear home, a sundress and flip flops.

Let's rock liquids tomorrow and may we all please have uneventful surgeries Monday!

As long as you don't have a fever you should have no problem. I had my pre-op on Thurs with a week-long cold and very congested, and my surgeon didn't even bat an eye.

I'm not a 25th, but a 26th. I started my liquids today. I am so nervous and excited. Starting out at 5'3, 265. I know it's not going to be easy, but I really hope it's not as bad as some of the things I have read on here. I am fairly active so I hope that helps. :) good luck to you all I can't wait to hear and see pics. :)

      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! 😞
