Hi everybody' date=' screaming all the way from Louisiana to let all now just found out this morning that I got approved by UHC and my surgeons office called with a surgery date of July 2nd. So excited yet a little nervous because it's major surgery but I've wanted this for a while and I can't wait.[/quote']

Dont be nervous! You got this - I am on day 3 post op and I pretty much feel normal. 2 days post op I was nauseous but it's all worth it now. Already lost 10 pounds in 3 days and I'm feeling good

My surgery is July 30th in Mexico. lilyrose, I wanted to have it in Australia because it's the one place my husband and I would really love to see. Unfortunately, the travel alone would've been more than just having the surgery at home - which kind of defeats the purpose of having it done in Mexico. Anyway, I can't wait - well actually I wish I was the type of person who could do this on my own, but i'm not very good at handling failure.

I'm looking into a date in July. One minute I am excited and ready to do it, then the next minute I tell myself to try another diet. But after trying every diet out there for the last 20 years, I'm ready to be sucessful! I just haven't gotten up the nerve to tell my parents and I don't know what their reaction will be. Saying, "oh by the way, I want to have 80% of my stomach removed in Mexico" may not go over too well.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
