March Surgery Dates



Recommended Posts

I had mine this past Tuesday and didn't have it until 1:00 PM and I'm diabetic! Rest assured though, by that morning I wasn't even hungry anymore since the day before was Clear Liquids. You are going to do great, and I am super excited for you. I'm 4 days out and feeling pretty good and I'm a gigantic wuss :)

Thank you for your kind words. I am so nervous and excited at the same time. What did all of you bring to the hospital? Anything you would recommend?

I was thinking house coat/- I hate open back gowns

I always put two gowns on. One with opening in the front and one opening in the back. Works great. :)

Hmmm...house shoes you can walk in, robe....I brought Burt's Bees because my lips were ridiculously chapped. I liked having the Listerine breath strips also. Lotion...deodorant...definitely lap top, ipad, phone or something you can keep us all posted with! It's nice being able to reach out on the forum when you're feeling frustrated.

I know EXACTLY what you're saying. I'm so glad the surgery is over for me, but it's harder than I thought it would be. If anyone ever tells you it's "the easy way out", you have my permission to punch them in the throat. When's your surgery date?

You've made a conscious decision to change your life. You've gone through all of this, and you have your surgery date right around the corner. These are all really good things. You have a lot to look forward to. The pre-op, the anticipation, the emotional stuff...it all sucks, but just keep telling yourself that it will get better. Before you know it...it does. You aren't alone. I'll be trudging right along with you.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
