Looking forward to July!



Recommended Posts

I am looking to be sleeved in MX the 2nd week of July. I'm looking at July 11th or 12th, and I should be confirmed soon! I can't wait. I've told a few people, including family members, and everyone is very supportive of this major life decision. My husband is particularly supportive and will be joining me in MX for the surgery!

Anyone else being sleeved around July 11th-12th?

I'm currently around 230lbs (down from 247 in Jan 2013), and I'm 5'4.

Hi there! I am aiming for the 12th or the 15th of July. My surgeon only operates on Mondays and Fridays so we will see. I have only told my immediate family and 1 co-worker and all have been supportive. Good luck with your surgery!

I am at 258lbs and 5'5".

My NUT has me on a diet that started @ 1600 calories in 2/1/2013 and now in down to 1200 calories till June 1st then 1000 calories ...then 2weeks before surgery I go on all liquid 900 to 800 calories ... She wants to ease me into it and its actually been working ... I'm eating every 2-3 hrs so I'm not hungry and Im drinking 64oz of Water sometimes more ... I can't take the appetite suppressants because I get palpitations and I have high BP :)

      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! 😞
