Mrs_Johnson - me and you are together. April 21 is my day. I am so ready!

Great! We can countdown together and support each other along the way! LOL! Do you have a pre op diet? I have a two week liquid diet that I start on April 8th, so I will be needing all the support I can get!! Please keep in touch!!

I have a pre op diet for 1 week prior to surgery. And all Clear Liquids on Easter. What was I thinking. Just kidding. I'm ready for this. The Easters is what got me here.

I downloaded a countdown clock app for my iphone. 1 month today! Whoo Whoo!!! Although, I just realized I will not be able to procrastinate and do the taxes on the last day since that's surgery day.

I've also started shopping. If you are looking for small (1oz, 2oz) size containers, search baby food containers. There is a whole world of people who make their own baby food which means there are a ton of container options. Glass or BPA free plastic. My Amazon wish list is huge!!!

I am April 15!!! Start liquid diet April 1. I am so scared I won't have the energy to work once only on liquid. Should be interesting

That's exactly how I feel! My job is moderately physical and I'm worried I won't have enough energy too!

I'm scheduled for April 14th... Possibly could be earlier if there are any cancellations. Under a month now and getting excited and nervous. Pre-op mandatory diet starts 3 weeks before.

I am hoping for a April/May Surgery date! Just finished my last psychology Appointment. Waiting for letter of approval!

I called the insurance company just to make sure they received everything. They did and it is being processed! Not an official approval but representative was very positive about it.

I have been looking at my schedule and going to request an April 25 date if possible...day after my last college exam.

I have no pre-op diet just the skills I have been learning and trying over the last 6 months. Smaller Protein focused meals every 3 hours drinking Water between only. Cut out everything sugar based and high fat.

I am trying to substitute Protein drinks as meals so first half of day liquids then solids in evening.

Good luck everyone...

      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! 😞
