Awesome!

Sounds like you don't have to complete a 6 month diet thingy.

I'm about a month into mine. I've done my labs' date=' ekg, and chest xray. I need to get a script for vit d deficiency. My doctor requires patients to go to 3 support group meetings, and I've went to 1 so far.

I am trying to be more active. Lately it's been getting colder (down in the 30s) so it makes it hard to want to get out and move. I did purchase a recumbent bike, can't wait to get that!!

Hope everyone is well!![/quote']

Welcome! Just an FYI...the number of months of pre op weigh ins you have to do depends on your insurance company. They all require a different number. I have BCBS and they need 6 consecutive weigh ins before they will even look at the paperwork the Dr has submitted.

      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?

      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! 😞
