I had my surgery yesterday around 2:00pm. I have done really well! Praise God! I had it worked up to so much more than it has been thus far. My pain has been around a 1 or a 2 all night. Walked last night around 8:30. My doctor says its possible may go home today. I will write more later.

Wonderful news!!! Looking forward to hearing more about the beginnings of you new journey! God Bless!

Losers Bench. Pain isn't that bad. Didnt use pain meds last night. Feels like I did 200 crunches. About to walk. I'm ready for ice chips!

Very well put! A lot of crunches.. Now if the gas bubbles would go away!

Still sitting in pre-op. My surgeon must have gotten stuck in her first surgery. Soooooo sleepy and ready to get this done.

I hope everything went well. I imagine since no update your procedure wasn't postponed again. :-)

I don't know about anyone else, but I can hardly do any work these days. All I can focus on is this journey! Mentally I'm already on leave...

So as of today I have been on a liver shrink diet since May 20. I was only suppose to be on it two weeks but when they switched my surgery' date=' surgeon, and date I have to do it even longer. This week I found out I lost 10lbs and I did really well but the last two days for whatever reason I've blown my diet way out. Both days I've wen over about 500 calories... I've got to get back on track and keep losing this weight. Meeting my surgeon tomorrow. Two more weeks of this diet. Craving more then chicken and shakes.[/quote']

Try doing nothing but shakes for a month. :( I have six more days to go. My husband accused me of watching porn... I was watching the food network last night with my eyes glazed over. Lol

If I can make it thru the next six days that will be 30 days on liquids. I cam do anything!

The nurse called me to pre register me f or surgery. I'm so excited. I have a 1000 calorie diet 7 days before surgery and a bowel prep the day before. Not lookibg foward to that. I did buy a goal outfit today too. Its a size 12. It was on clearance. I'm going to use it to keep me focused!

I did that! I got two JCP coupons and although I'm a while away from surgery I got three XL shirts and two pairs of jeans (12 & 14) all for $3 after my coupons. I'm going to do that every time so I have a bunch of clothes in different sizes. Best way to save money and avoid thrift shops. Nothing against thrift shops at all but when I'm down so many pounds I want cute new clothes!

      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... :(
