Hey guys.... Just found that the app was moved. Haven't chacked-in in a while. Got a call from the hospital today, registering me. let my store managers and all my teams know these past few days of my up coming surgery. So things are starting to get real! I have my pre-op appointment on Dec 3rd, and surgery scheduled for Dec 20th. I am so happy to be having the surgery. I have been smoke free for 23 days. It's been tough, really tough. But it's getting easier, No more nicotine fits, which my kids are happy about. I was miserable the first week! I can't wait to be 100% more healthy! I'm trying.

I'm nervous too but I think it's more a healthy appreciation for the seriousness of our decision to embrace this journey. The discomfort we will experience for a short time only leads to a lifetime of realizing the dream of healthy living. God has a purpose for our lives and He wouldn't lead us to this point if He didn't have great plans for our life ahead. Stay focus and keep your eyes on His purpose for your new, thinner, healthier life! God bless, Sandy

My surgery is December 11th. Endoscopy Friday and one more nutrition visit for all my post op instructions (as if it hadn't been instilled in me 1000 other times)! :-) Super nervous but I had an hour long interview over the phone with one of the nurses that will be at my beacon call in the hospital and she basically said to just free myself of worry and let it be. Eekk 20 days, fellow 12/11's!

YEA BUDDY!!!! Just got my surgery date. December 18!!! I completed all the tests and medically supervised diet, got all my clearances - finally, that took 8 months because sleep test slowed me down by a month. My surgeon's office is going to submit all to insurance tomorrow and barring any last minute obstacle I am set for December 18. Dr. Paul Thodiyil is doing my surgery at NY methodist Hospital. He is doing it laproscopically and with robotic assistance it's called DaVinci Surgery. I am so psyched. The day before surgery I am going to take some before pics and all measurements - I want to document my entire journey. I feel so blessed to be on this journey!!

      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! 😞
