August 2013 Roll Call



Recommended Posts

I made it through surgery well yesterday. I'm back at the hotel relaxing today. So far I don't really think I've had much of the gas pain just a little pain in my tummy area but not bad.

Since I had my surgery in Mexico, I just met with my nutritionist for the first time yesterday. I'm 5'8 and was at 442 pre pre-op diet, 222 on surgery date and her goal for me is 153! I don't think I've weighed that since junior high! I can't imagine what I will look like at that weight but I'm excited to find out!!

I hope everyone else is doing well!! I truly felt at ease through this surgery process thanks to everyone on here for sharing their experiences!

I had my pre op yesterday. Passed all tests and all cleared for Monday's surgery. I am down 16 pounds so far in a week and a half. It is getting closer for sure! I am past the nerves and second guessing...it is time to make a change and take control!

And 1gorgeousgodzilla, it could be worse...we could be Bama or Florida fans...lol GEAUX TIGERS!!

      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! 😞
