Save some of that excitement for afterwards. ;))

Best of luck

Lol..if only I had known how I would react to the anesthesia, maybe I wouldn't have been so excited lol..

But it's the day after the surgery and I was able to have some ice chips, and a little propel... so things are looking up:)

Hope others had good experiences too

Okay, I had mine done on 6/25. I'm home and don't feel that great. It sometimes hurts/uncomfortable when I take a swallow of Water or Protein Drink. My doc says each day will get better. I'm counting on it..does anyone else feel like me??

Yes, when I try to eat Jello I get a very uncomfortable sensation, like I'm super full and gasey...then my stomach gurgles a bit and it passes...but it's not fun..

I'm four days out and have successfully eaten 1/2 a single sf popsicle stick, and one 16.9 fl oz of propel zero which it took all day to get down... I tried the Jello but could only take a 3 thumb nail size bites over 15 minutes with the sensations I mentioned earlier...

Does this sound like what your experiencing?

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
