June 3rd here. This last month has flown by...only 2 weeks to go. I go on May 28 for final pre-op testing. I'm not nervous about surgery, just nervous about after surgery. Will I be able to stick with this. I'm 51 and been obese since I was 10 years old. Wondering what will happen when I lose the 120 lbs. I know I can do it, just scared.

I understand where you are coming from. I have always been over weight. I'm 54 and praying I can change my eating habits! Good luck to you.

Sleep studies are not that big of deal' date=' yes u will not be in your own bed but the bedroom should be set up like a hotel room to make u feel more at home, yes u will have alot of wires hooked to u but u will survive i promise plus im guessing u dont have a choice but to have study

Sent from my iPhone using VST[/quote']

You are right that it's not that big of a deal but I still couldn't wait until it was over; I was so uncomfortable...far from a night at a hotel for me

I really didn't know what happened, first time I'm posting, sorry! I have looked at stories for months and finally decided to post something of my own! I got my surgery date finalized today. I'm both ecstatic and terrified, but I am sure that this is the best decision of my life. MY DATE IS JUNE 10. I cant wait to be on the losers bench :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:

Hoping to be approved and sleeved by the last week of June. Final appointment with surgeon is Thursday and then they'll submit to insurance. Hoping for a fast approval so I can get my 2-week pre op diet underway. Best of luck to you!!

June 17th for me - lapband revision. I should be excited but I'm not - after failure with the band, just hoping to find something that works for me.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
