I have my date with Dr. O for June 18th, I am nervous over several things but the most important is that I have gained 12 lbs since my initial visit in fEB. I heard he will post pone the surgery until I loose the weight??? Any suggestions on how to loose 12lbs in three weeks?

Sorry its taken me so long to reply. I did the exact same thing. I had the "last supper" problem going on. I thought I wasn't ever going to be able to eat normally once I had my surgery. I wanted to enjoy the last remaining weeks before my life with food was finally over. Wrong. If you can get over that mindset it will help you. Also I started Protein Shakes in the morning instead of my normal Breakfast to get myself ready for the liquid phase pre-surgery. This will increase your Protein intake and could take off a few pounds. Good luck hope this helps.

      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! 😞
