Hubby doesnt know much about him so I will tell him to look for your posts.

Its been a real lifestyle change for him and I am only 8 days into mine.

I think his pre op diet is a bit wierd... you get your protien by swallowing bug meat.< /p>

Had to do it... sorry

Um, I had my surgery done by Dr. Illan and there was nothing unusual about my pre-op diet.

I just replied to your message before i seen this! You are in great hands! I am sure you will be as happy with Dr Illan as everyone else has been. And I agree I didn't see any thing different with our pre-op diet then other dr's so I am confused LOL

Bug meat?

It's a joke from another thread. I am not required to eat insects pre-op.

Oh, thanks for explaining that. I was wondering if bug meat was a nickname for something or what. LOL.

Ha ha, I was concerned I sent you the wrong pre-op information. I was panicking thinking bug meat was on there, I know Protein is important to us, but I have to draw the line somewhere and that definitely would be it, lol.

      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

      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... :(
