Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone happen to be at the Mi hospital or Marriot today. My mom and her best friend flew down yesterday and are scheduled to have surgery on Thursday with Drs. Valenzuela and Cabrera-Garcia. I got an email last night saying there was a change of plans and that my mom was now having surgery today. I haven't heard from either of them yet today. And wanted to find out if anyone had run into them. Rosanne and Joan are their names. Or if maybe you had any contact info for the doctors. Thanks for the help.

That's a good idea. I think she is at the hospital though, guess I should try and find that number. Thanks for thinking of that. :)

Tried to call both the hospital and hotel. No one answered at either. Maybe it's to late tonight. We are going to try in the morning. Wish me luck.

I know, I'm just up in Washington. But we tried to call multiple times with no success. So I figured maybe they don't have a full staff in the evenings.

I'm sure they are all drugged up sleeping it off. I'll try and track down the docs coordinator in the morning. :)

Finally got an email last night. Sounds like things went well for my mom and we got the number for the hospital so I'll give her a call today to see how she is feeling. :)

      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?

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
