I feel your pain I am also on Monday. I was doing great until today and the nerves are starting to hit. I am sure we will both be fine. I am having a revision from the band to sleeve. Good luck!

Good luck to both of you. Try to relax, it's nerve wracking but you've worked long and hard to get to this point. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

I'm having my surgery on Monday too! I normally get really, really scared and anxious before surgeries, but I don't feel that way yet. I hope you guys can get a good nights sleep and a quick recovery!!!

Good luck to all of you!! I know you will do great. These feelings are very. Normal. I was sleeved 4-23. I was fine until I got to the pre op room and saw the nurses waiting for me. Tears started flowing. The said to me - you are in good hands and keep your eye on the prize - They were so right. 20 lbs down since the pre op diet. I fit in a pair if jeans yesterday that I haven't been able to fit into for 6 years. I won't lie and tell you it's easy. The first week after surgery was a roller coaster. Your emotions will go from - I miss food to what have I done. Just remember those feelings will pass within a day or two. Prayers to all of you!!!!!

I am Monday as well since yesterday I have been so nervous that I am spending most of the time in the bathroom. It's 8;30 Sunday morning and I don't want to get out of bed. Just want to sleep this day away. This time tomorrow I'll be prepping for surgery. Yay

      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... :(
