T - minus 12 days and counting (May 28) to Dr ACEVES



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled to have my sleeve surgery by Dr ACEVES on May 28. I would love to here from any who will be there at that time ? I am not as nervous as I am excited. I know I need to get this surgery. I am 57, still in good health, but 100lbs overweight. Getting this surgery is simply a smart move on my part to live the rest of my life. I am also excited because I am going to combine my surgery trip with a real estate "scouting trip" in northern AZ Prescott / Flagstaff. Given the major questions concerning our health care system ? I think positioning oneself within a half day drive of the "border" for "elective" type medical / dental care is simply a smart move. Medi-Care doesn't even cover ANY dental expense, and even though Medi_care is promised to remain relatively "un-changed" (whatever that means) for ME, it certainly will be a lesser program for my younger wife ( a nurse from The Philippines). Thus, everyone needs to THINK about the (their) medical future ? What, where, how am I going to "protect" my medical care options.

      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! 😞
