Day 1 of pre surgery bowel prep. Not too bad for the most part. Hoping tomorrow goes just as good, esp after I take the yukky stuff! Can't wait for Thursday!

Got my date today, Nov 13th. Have been on 2 wk pre-op diet for a week, 1 to go. chicken, fish, vegs, no carbs and 2-3 Protein Shakes a day. I am 62 yrs old and looking forward to a new life. Sick of these limitations on my body(fat). Look forward to the help from sharing here.

Congrats to the recent bsndsters! I'm so glad that everything went well for you all.

I am doing my pre op diet and making lists and preparing. I have a lot of shopping to do. Which is fine... I like to shop. :)

Hello all.. 2 days post surgery and I'm feeling pretty good.. One more day of clears and then on to full liquids for 2 weeks. I am so looking forward to a Protein shake..lol never thought I'd be saying that!. Still have some gas but gas-x seems to be working fine.. Minimal discomfort where the insiicions are..I have nothing in my band yet but I am not hungry at all. Gained 8 lbs in the hospital, I guess from the iv but I lost 5 yesterday..I hear that's pretty normal though.. I'll keep you all posted on my progress and you please do the same...this is a new chapter in our lives! I'm ready

I wish I could get my surgery(nov14) moved up also! The person that submits and schedules is out until Wednesday. I am going to try and get mine moved up also!

Same here only a select few know about the surgery everyone else will be under the impression I'm having a hernia repair :)

Surgery in two days. A little nervous but more excited than anything. Can't wait !!!

      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... :(
