I have not been on this forum in months due to my crazy life. 2 jobs and school also in process of moving. However my insurance company requires us to complete a 6 month follow up with a nutritionist to track and monitor our eating and exercising. We also had to complete an array of test h pylori, sleep apnea, physical behavior evaluation ect. This some what became a challenge for me, due to the new criteria in 2014 my insurance has now. However i was still able to complete these extra things.

I am approaching my 5 th month on 2.11.14, I have 1 more month after that than I am complete. I will meet with my surgeon, complete a few more test with him and I will be ready for surgery. I'm praying I can have this surgery during spring break. Which I have a week and a half off of school. I am excited about this summer. Being smaller and healthier is something I always wanted. I believe I am physically prepared, but may have some difficulties being mentally prepared. All in all I am excited and ready to begin my new life.

I hope that this all works on your time table. I am on a similar track, I am seeing the surgeon on February 17th and have a few more tests to complete. I am hoping for surgery sometime in April. Looking forward to the spring and summer..

      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! 😞
