Hey Heather! I can't figure out how to copy and paste but I'm agreeing with you on your surgery date. I can't seem to find anyone on the 13th so now I'm wondering if its because its Friday the 13th? I'm starting to think we should've picked different dates. I am just so ready to get this done! Hope we still run into each other at the hotel.
I'm on the 13th tooo!! I always find it to be a lucky day for me so I'm very happy to get it. I'm sure it will be lucky for you guys also!

Hi.
Im down for Sept 4th. Im excited and cant believe it. Surgery will be 10 weeks and a day form my first appointment. Yes, you read it right 10 weeks. Im in love with my insurance company and hospital at this moment. I'm from Illinois

I wish I lived in Illinois! My insurance co. Is awful! They would not pay for my surgery so it's out of pocket. :( And has been much more expensive than I thought with all the tests and such. I guess you have had your surgery now! How are you feeling? I'm due to have mine on Sept 11th, next Monday. I'm really nervous! It has been 3 1/2 months since my first appt. I really wanted the surgery much sooner. I'm even battling with the insurance co right now to approve the medications I need after surgery. :( I truly hope I'm doing the right thing!

How did you feel after the first few day? Gas pains is the worse right now! I'm not hungry but I'm drinking a lot! Been sleeping most of the day. How do you feel now?

if you can force yourself to burp after you drink or take medicine it helps with the gas I had my surgery on 9-6 and that was the worst for me feeling as thought my chest was going to pop.

      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! 😞
