Went in for my surgical consult and Nut. appt yesterday. I've met the requirement for insurance loss 11lbs. Nut is satified. Surgeon said I shouldn't lose anymore weight until the liquid diet. That I am expected to lose 15 to 20lbs and I will be under 200lbs.

Yea for me but, there are a few more lab test and a gallbladder ultrasound to do. A few years ago they found a polyp he plan to remove my gallbladder also. I think it is great to get all those things Pre-Authorized before surgery. No surprises. I just went in for those labs today, and my primary will give me a referral for the ultrasound.Lastly, the pre- auth will be sent. I am hoping for a December surgery before Christmas.

Yes, hopefully under 200lbs. I have other issues that allow me use the surgery as a permanent tool of weight loss. I need to stay under weight for health reasons.

      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! 😞
