HeyMichele, that is great! I'd love to be buddies if you are up for it. It seems that there are quite a few of us on the 7th. LESS than 2 weeks away now! :lol:

I start Wednesday with surgery date of 4/9. Not looking forward to the two week diet

I start my 2 week preop diet Wednesday as well with surgery on 4/9. I've been trying to have some of my favorite meals now (of course within moderation). I'm hoping the 2 weeks fly by because I am NOT too anxious to start the liquids!

I feel you! Here's to hoping those two weeks fly by! I'm here if you need any support! Have you gotten surgery jitters at all?

I still haven't received confirmation that I will get the surgery. I'm hoping to have a April date. Keeping my fingers crossed. I tried to get the surgery a few years ago and I was denied. So I'm being a little bit pessimistic.

Jfraz,

I understand the feeling. I am waiting for approval also it has been 14 days. I called and they said it was in processing. I keep thinking what if it is denied.. The waiting is so hard. I hope by next week it will be processed so I can set end of April surgery date.

I'm at what should be my final appt before submission for approval. In the waiting room and nervous. If everything goes as planned I'll be submitted to insurance by the end of this week. *fingers crossed^

Yeah, I am starting to get some jitters about it. I'll be sitting there thinking about it and my heart will start racing a little! I know that everything will be ok though!

How about you, any jitters or anything?

      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... :(
