Oh crap that was fast.



Recommended Posts

Well my surgery date is the 14th of may. When I did the band there was 6 months of crap to deal with with my Insurence. ,,, sooooo I was beyond ready. But since in paying for it out if my pocket I walked in today and said how far back is scheduling ? They said the 14th and I said sign me up. Now I just hope I don't back out of it. I'm really ready to get rid of this band ,,, and actually have a good shot at losing weight and keeping it off.

Dont be afraid and go for it! it is life changing, i did this surgery out of pocket also but mine was faster, i first knew about this surgery at the beginning of november and i went to the doctors office November 6th at 5:30 pm he asked me how soon did i want this surgery and i said as soon as possible (thinking that he wont say anytime before a month) he looked at me with a big smile on his face and said someone was scheduled for tomorrow at 10 am, but she had an emergency and she wont be able to make it, want to come instead? LMAO i looked at my husband scared as hell and he said go for it, you want this more than anything. I agreed so i had to be at the hospital 7 am next morning for tests then at 10 am i had my surgery!! you have a month to get prepared i had less than 12 hours :D You'll be fine. GOOD LUCK AND KEEP US UPDATED!

      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! 😞
