I wish I waited until the last minute to tell my husband all his neg.comments for 6 months not good

I'm sorry your husband is not supportive!! My husband is so supportive he said on Friday when I start my liquid diet that he will do all the cooking!! I'm lucky!!

My husband goes for surgery tomorrow any tips for the day before? I'm very scared!

You can't say it will be ok cuz there can always be problems with any surgery you might have but know this that the surgeons in this day and age have been doing the surgery now for along time and they are very well taught. I hope this will help you! Good luck to you and your husband!!

Omg!! I've been hearing negative things too. No horror stories just comments like "I'm not sure I'm ok with you doing this" from a friend that I have known for along time. I just said tough I'm doing it.

Usually, when I get cringes and disapproval from people, they end up being more understanding once they know more about the procedure & why I'm doing it. Only a few have reacted very negatively. I am moving forward, regardless!

My surgery has been moved to May 13th from May 6th. Even though I am excited about getting the surgery, 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.

      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! 😞
