Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I've been off for awhile just going through life, thinking and attending my nutritional visits. Well my last nutritional visit was Jan. 10th. I got my approval on Jan. 22. Yaaaayyy!!! My preop is Jan. 28 and my surgery is scheduled for Feb. 19!! I'm excited, sooo excited. I start my two week liquid diet on Jan. 28. My darling Hubby went to SAMs Club and purchased everything I needed. (So sweet)

I can say that I've stayed away from any Weight Loss forums just because I needed to take time and wrap my brain around "MY" journey. I didn't want to get caught up on "well, that's not what so and so went through." I needed this to be 100% my choice based on how I'm feeling about myself.

Please make sure that this surgery or any other surgery is for YOU and no one else!

Again though I'm super excited and I promise I will be here updating regularly.

Love , peace and Blessings,

Starfish n coffee

That is wonderful to hear. I didn't read or join any forums until almost two years after I was banded so I totally understand. Awesome news!!!

      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!!

      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! 😞
