We'll I had my final visit today at the surgeons office...4.5 hours long!! Good thing is I'm 12 pounds down from my first visit with him.

I am on info overload tonight!! Plus I have a 3 hour drive one way so it has been a LONG day!!

They require a high protein/very low carb (20 gms or less) diet from now until my surgery Dec 2. The day before Clear Liquids only...

Have more to share but it will have to wait until tomorrow...

Anyone still on this? I'm lost now

I am still here although I have been having some issues with this site and the internet. Not sure which. Well, it is official the date is Dec 4th. I am all approved and all is good. I am not sure what to do now. LOL. I am both nervous and a bit scared. I am wanting this to be done and can't stand the wait. I have been waiting for years. I just hope that it goes by some what fast.

On the iPad app, try clicking on the second to last page, then the last page. It's the way I've been able to see the most current posts in older, long threads.

Congrats Janifer on your surgery!!!!! Brandii, still on the baby food thinking.........I would think you would need to watch the sugar so you wouldn't have any dumping...or maybe babyfood doesn't have much sugar????? My kids are older so it's been a looooonnnng time since i have looked at babyfood. Waiting on insurance approval....and waiting and waiting....I am getting impatient with all of this waitinnnngggg!

Hello all! I've been on this site from time to time during my six month diet. I finished all that and finally got a surgery date of December 11th and am cramming all my pre-op stuff in within the next couple of weeks. That's stressful. Other than that, I'm stoked. Scared and anxious but excited. Can't wait to use this forum a lot more to get to know you guys and go through this process together. My surgeon doesn't have any pre surgery diets fortunately so I plan to eat at Thanksgiving like there is no tomorrow and sit around at Christmas hating everyone stuffing their faces, lol. I ordered all my Vitamins last night along with some Protein. My wallet is crying! Thanks for listening and I look forward to getting to know you guys!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
