I think waiting to get approval is like the worst part so congrats on getting over that hurdle! I have to finish all of my pre-op testing before they will even give me a surgery date. Sucks lol

My surgeon says she does not require a pre-op diet. They initially wanted me to cut calories a great deal so it wouldn't be such a shocker to me. I was concerned about the diet because it was coming down to the last minute! They told me to eat really light tomorrow (day before procedure) and nothing after midnight. :)

Wow! That is fast! Congrats! Did you already do a pre op diet?

Congratulations on your surgery date! Very exciting way to begin the new year and this new chapter of healthy living. I am just two months out and still figuring it all out, but I am so happy! Good luck to you -- keep us posted on how you are doing and don't forget to walk like crazy afterward. It really helps!

      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! 😞
