I'm still saving as much as I possibly can. I'm about $1,200 away from having it all! I can't wait! I haven't scheduled a date yet because I'm afraid I won't have all the money by the day I pick. :(

I've changed my mind so many times its ridiculous. I thought that I was for certain going to go to Dr. Aceves, but I just can't afford that right now in my budget. I'm about to have to get a new vehicle and I need as much money as I can at this point. So, I've decided on Dr. Fernando Garcia. After annoying him and alma for months with my questions, I'm just going to try and push all of my anxieties to the side and go with it! I'm scared out of my mind, but I know this needs to be done in order for me to get my health and life back on track. I'm more than likely going to go in August or September. Just whenever I get the $1,200 and I'm gone! :)

I was going to choose Aceves at first but really needed to save my money so I went with Dr. Garcia at Florence Hospital. I was sleeved last Tuesday and so far I'm feeling great!

I have been keeping up with all of your stories, and that's what's reassuring me that I'm making a good choice. I know that you were worried like me, Olivia. I take your word on it when you say that things were fine. :)

      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! 😞
