I will be getting my Ekg,Lab,and chest x ray this morning. I'm so nervous. My surgery will be this Friday. I would like to share a personal story. I feel very calm that my surgery will come out fine. My husband passed away 1 yr ago and for some reason I feel his presence besides me all the time. I know he won't let me down. And in God's power I will make it through. I'm just asking for a prayer to safe revovery. Thanks for the support.- Vanessa :-) :')

My husband passed away 4 yrs ago and I was the same as you. I knew he would be there and I would be all right. I had to go through some bumps in the road before surgery and I kept wondering if he was saying Dont do It but when I found my surgeon and he recommended the sleeve everything fell into place- I believe he wasn't telling me not to, he was leading me to the best outcome. I had no pain, no nausea. I am 3 mos out, down over 60 lbs sine pre op and couldn't be happier about it. I was very calm on surgery day- no fears.

Thank you . I have been through a lot in one year but I still manage to stand strong. He was a kind of person with a strong and positive attitude. He was in the military so I learned a lot being a patient army wife. And I also feel like I want an answer from him letting me know if I should do it or not. But I know he will follow me thru.

      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
