My surgery has been moved to May 13th from May 6th. Even though I am excited about getting the surgery' date=' I'm kinda glad for the extra prep time. I had my pre-op with the surgeon on Friday and I will meet with the anesthesiologist early next week. The surgeon spent about an hour with me and my support person who was very impressed. Just about all of my friends and family are against me getting the surgery because they don't think I need it and want me to do Weight Watchers because Jennifer Hudson lost a lot with them. (I call BS on that but I digress). Anyway, good luck to all.[/quote']

I've switched your date. :P. Your now the day before me. Your doing this for you and if others can't support you, just stick with the ones who do! You are gonna do great and feel so good. Good luck on the pre op diet. Mine starts tomorrow..

Surgery date: May 14, 2013

Freaking out!!! Go to meet with the surgeon in an hour. Petrified he is gonna postpone my surgery because I have not lost weight. I kinda did but not enough. I first saw him the beginning of oct. I was 202. But then the holidays came and being an idiot and thinking it was the last time I could really enjoy them I shot up to 216. Now I'm down to 204. So nervous. Plus my mom is going with me to appt. it took her along time to come around and be supportive so I'm so scared she is going to see I'm already a failure.

Freaking. Out...Only 4 more days!

The doctors office called this morning to remind me of my pick up orders appt. on Thursday and verify my surgery. Surgery on Friday @ 8:00 am.. Struggled a bit with the pre-op diet the first week but got back into the swing of things again. My husband and I went out this weekend to a couple different places for some Protein Drink options for after the surgery.. Not sure what I will like after surgery so picked up an array of drinks. Picked up some stuff for the hospital like the Gas x and face wipes. Worked like a mad woman today trying to get my office in good order. I feel like my mind is always racing, racing all over the place. How is everyone else doing?

      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
