Not if I go there and club your knees! Know go sit down and let some of us slugs be heroes for a month.

:D

You better hurry. Another week and I don't think you'll be able to catch me.

I am still about six weeks away My Insurance requires a six month managed program.I started in June, so I am almost there! Currently I have taken one of the required four weekly pre surgical skills classes. When they are complete (Nov 7) my file is sent to the surgeon, for appointment and scheduling of the surgery. I have been trying to focus on the plan and losing as much weight before the surgery.

Thank You. The program that I am in has done a good job helping me be prepared. The Exercise Psyiologist has me doing 20-30 minutes a day of cardio, minimum. I have also begun light weight and stretching exercises 3 times a week. I figure it is good to establish some routines now, so that I can get back to it as soon as able after the surgery.

Oh I did so well today! 3.3 miles of walking/hiking uphill, 60 mins of snorkeling half of which was against the current. I prob put on 2 lbs from just swallowing sea Water. Btw, don't waste time snorkeling the Garrafon reef. Nothing to see!

Anyway puts me at 46.7 miles on walking/biking.

Tomorrow is cake hiking and snorkeling so we shall see. Can my fitbit go snorkeling with me, does anyone know?

oh fricking heck! WHY AM I THINKING OF CAKE? Cave. Cave hiking. No cake for me. :(

You know something weird? We went to a grocery store here, and they had samples out. One of the samples was an entire fricking cake! Like a whole wonderful white cake with red gooey things and icing and whatnot just sitting out. I guess the idea was you just walked up to it and cut yourself a slice? I was amazed there was anything left. Like, people were just walking by it and I was going "People! There's CAKE there!" At the very least you would have thought there would be a stampede but nope.

But then I walked by it as well, left it untouched. I guess my subconscious hasn't let go of that cake yet. Sigh.

      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!!

      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... :(
