I am feeling much better! I had a lot of gas pain but that is gone now. Just some soreness around my incisions. I'm trying to work my way up to walking longer' date=' but I start feeling a little faint. I think it's lack of calories due to the Clear Liquids. I had my one week follow up today and have been released to soft foods so I just made my grocery list lol. I have lost 13lbs since surgery so I am very happy![/quote']

That's good. I'm sure when you start eating you will feel a lot better, and have at least a little more energy hopefully. Dang 13 lbs that's great! I'm happy for you keep it up. I'm glad your doing good and its good to know your very happy. You made a good healthy life changing desistion. Best of luck in everything. Keep me posted on your wonderful new journey. Take care.

Yes Tuesday is coming fast. It is normal to be nervous, see it as taking a nap not dead. When you wake up you will be the same person but with a new tool. Take care don't lose faith God is always watching.

Good deal. I am starting a high Protein diet tomorrow one week in advance of my 3 month completion of the supervised diet. I really hope we can get the insurance approval quickly.

Ty. I guess that happens sometime, remember your stomach has changed and now you have to get to know it again. I know you can do it. I have faith in you. How is your healing going?

      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... :(
