BUTTTT ON MY LAST PRE OP APPOINTMENT THEY WENT AHEAD AND SCHEDULE EVERYTHING BECAUSE I DID LOSE SOME OF THE WEIGHT. . HE DID SAY FOR ME TO LOSE A COUPLE MORE POUNDS BUT THAT WAS IT ...SINCE THEN I'VE LOST ONLY 2. WILL HE CANCEL? I am supposed to receive a call at 3 today to determine what time I'm going to be going into surgery tomorrow

Only he can say for sure, of course.

However, if he literally said to lose "a couple more pounds" then that's exactly what you did. A "couple" is two.

Now, think calming and relaxing thoughts. It won't help you to be all worked up, though I know it's natural to be nervous.

Good luck.

Good luck! I was nervous before my surgery over the same issue. During my 6 month work up to get insurance approval I only lost 4 pounds! When I talked to him about it he looked surprised and said " if you could lose a lot of weight you wouldn't need this surgery". He told me that the more you get off before the easier it is to have a successful laparoscopic procedure. If he said a couple of pounds and you lost two then you should be ok. Good luck!

      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! 😞
