We will all be fine. We are praying for you. We will see your happy recovering posts soon!!! Hang in there!!

I'm scared too but more scared I will fail like I always do.

Worm I know you won't fail! We are in this together.... I'm scard too, even though I'm on the losing size now...

It feels great but at the same time I always fail in whatever I did, so I am praying that we will succeed ! I know we will!

:D

Worm I think we share that fear. I worry I am not as strong as some of these other success stories on this board but I am hoping to benefit from all the great advice on here as well as leaning on new friends on this board. I don't know anyone who has had this surgery so this community is great. You seem determined and I know you will do awesome.

Thank I the closer I get the more try to stay away from google. How do People feel about telling people that they r having surgery. I have not told a ton of people but feel like it will be harder as I get closer and I hear people say they got a lot of negative reactions

Dotted, I'm trying to stay away from google too! It has certainly scared me. I've only told my close friends and family. I haven't really had any negative responses. Most just ask why and say I understand and support me after hearing my reasons. My friends and family are so protective that they just want to make sure this wasn't a just because idea. I've only had two reactions that made me know bring it up any further... A coworker was being nosey and noticed I was reading a book on my nook about WLS and decided to give me his unsolicited 2 cents about how if I'm thinking about it, don't because he didn't think I need it. (The nerve of some people.) Thank God for the support if my husband and you wonderful ladies!

Stephanie! I just saw we have the same dr. Dr McCloskey. How was she?? I'm at my preop now.

She was really nice. She checked me in before the surgery and after that I didn't see her at all. My surgery was on a Friday. I remember her saying that she will be in town still if she was needed but there was someone else there helping me out. I don't know if it would be different if your surgery is on a Monday.

      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... :(
