You're in it for sure now! I'm glad you stalked for a while. I did too, and made my decision to have Dr Garcia perform my surgery on the 28th. I'll see you there!

Yes Parker. My sister told me to stop bring a chicken because hitting submit was not as easy as I thought it would be.

What an interesting post! "Stop, bring a chicken? " Sounds like something a hippy would do to protest the superficiality of the junior prom. :D

Edit: Oh, stop being a chicken. I finally figured out what you meant. No chicken protests are in the making. Good, they just get you expelled anyway. :angry:

Hi to everyone, including you stalkers!

I am three weeks out from surgery (Feb. 21st with Dr. Garcia in TJ through Ready4AChange) and I am feeling great! This week was very exciting as I added mushified deli turkey slices and "real" Soups to my diet. I've got one of those blender "wands" and it has been perfect for blending Protein powder into Soup.

My "go to" items right now are chocolate Protein Powder in (slighly cooled) Decaf coffee each morning and unflavored Protein Powder mixed into an 80 calorie dannon light greek yogurt at lunch. By afternoon, I've already had almost 60 grams of Protein. The Water intake is a struggle...my water bottle (with crystal light) is my constant companion. I also treat myself to a daily bottle of Vitamin Water zero. This surgery was the best thing that I have ever done for myself... I'm 66 years old...wish I had done it decades ago!

I donated a bunch of my "fatest" clothes yesterday... I have about 5 sizes worth of boxed clothes from prior weight losses! It is such an amazing, freeing feeling to know that I will never go back to this size/weight.

My recovery has gone better and faster than I ever could have imagined! Thank you so much, Dr. Garcia and your team!

      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.

      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! 😞
