Dr. Evanson is doing mine. They called me on a Wednesday to set up a time for all my test and they only do them on a Friday . They had that Friday open so I took it. I had them all done in one day in Logansport. I got a call 12 days later with a surgery date.

Oh wow that's great!! I just love dr evanson. He did my lap band surgery even though I had to have it moved to no fault of his or mine. It slipped! So I would have no one else do mine. I praying for a may surgery!!

Today is my last day to what I want. Tuesday morning is my surgery. I'm not going to lie I'm scared. I know I'm doing it for the right reasons. My health but it doesn't make it any easier.

Tomorrow is my surgery. I feel like I'm going to a funeral . Saying good buy to my old life and when I wake up from surgery. I will be walking in a field of butterflies. With a new start in life. It will be a lot of work but I'm worth it.

I did. I had my surgery one month ago. It takes some time but there is

a list of thing's you need to complete . From start to finish it took me about 7 to 8 months to get my approval letter. It is so worth the work. I have lost 40lb my first month. I feel so much better.

      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! 😞
