Hey everyone!

I just started this account a few minutes ago. I will have my gastric sleeve surgery tomorrow at 7 am :o

I'm so nervous and excited at the same time. Any advice? :)

I'm in the very beginning stages. Have my sleep apnea scheduled tomorrow. I see you have had your surgery by now. How did it go? How are you feeling? I am excited for you and cannot wait for these 6 months to go by so I can be where you are at now!

Yes! 3 days post op today. The surgery went perfect, I feel some pain sometimes but I guess that's just the usual. I can't wait till I start seeing changes in myself.

Don't worry they will go by fast :)

Best of luck!

Well, I ain't gonna lie... That was probably the worst pain I've ever felt when I woke up from surgery. It took them about an hr to get my pain taken care of. But we got it under control. I've walked quite a bit and did what's called the blue ice test. I eat ice colored with some type of blue dye and they make sure none comes out in my drain tube as an extra leak test. I still look like I've been noshing on smurfs.

My vision is extremely blurry Bc of the nausea patch, and I'm so very nauseous that I've been dry heaving this morning. I have a low-grade fever, which is normal after surgery, but I still feel totally wiped out by it.

Yay SuberFab!! So happy to hear you're ok. I've had surgery quite a few times and those first hours after are pretty rough. I'm sure after another day you'll be feeling do much better. I hope your friend is doing better.

Keeps us posted on your progress. I'm so happy for you that this part is over and the good stuff is still to come! Watch that fever and get lots of rest!! YOU DID IT!!!!

      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.

        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... :(
