Hello ladies. First off let me say how happy I am to have found this app and to know that I am not alone. I am just beginning my path to a healthier me. I have at least 3 months before I get scheduled for my surgery due to insurance qualifications. I am excited and nervous at the same time. I haven't psych evaluation tomorrow. Wish me luck. I am looking for a few friends that will accompany me on my life changing experience. Have a blessed day. Hope to talk to some of you soon.

I'm new too. Had my first consult this week and I'm excited to get started! Anyone know how to add a pic or edit profile using the iPhone app?

I'm new as well. I'm actually waiting to see the nutritionist as I'm typing this message.

I click and hold on the person's name and a drop down menu appears that gives me the option to send a private message. I am using my phone though.

My insurance was so unfair! I jad to do a 6 month supervised diet! Just make sure ur psych eval is good for that amount of time. I had that rite before my file was submitted to medicaid. And make sure ur doc test u for h-pylori before u submit to ur insurance cuz they will ask for that.

Most of the preop stuff is very specific and needs to be ordered by your surgeon - or so I thought.

Every referral I've had was good for one year so if I delayed my surgery till Feb of 2014 I'd be fine

      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.

      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! 😞
