Surgery tomorrow! Still wondering if I could do this myself!



Recommended Posts

Hi, I have been looking at this website since I started with the first seminar June 2013. I was so excited after the seminar, that finally I have found a way to permanently lose weight' instead of the yo-yo diet. I went thru all the hoops of my insurance and had a surgery date of Aug 14th. I went thru the 2 week all liquid diet and the night before I panicked!!! I thought could do this myself since I only had 70 pounds to lose. Wrong!!!! Almost 2 months later I am 5 lbs heavier than i started and now have a new surgery date of Oct 5th. For me after a diet its too easy to go back to eating what I was that put me here in the first place. Good Luck on what you decide!

      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! 😞
