I'd love to connect with locals at least in the 804, 757, or 540 area codes! Please add me if your in Virginia!

Hi skinniminiwannabe! I love your user name. I'm in Fredericksburg. My surgeon will be Brennan Parmody MD, Bon Secours. I'm in month 2 of my PCP supervised diet (BCBS Fed) I can't wait for surgery!

Good morning! I'm in Chesapeake, with surgery in Newport News. I went to a seminar on Saturday, did a 1on 1 Tuesday and will probably have a July or August date. It's going much faster than I thought, with only a few prerequisites. We have a vacation planned in early July, so I'll wait til after for surgery.

Drinking Water is one of my 3 adjustments thus far. I've also cut out all carbonation (boo hoo!) and weaning off caffeine. So far these are my obstacles. I set alarm on my phone to remind me about water. It's not that I don't like water, I simply forget! I have menopause brain.

Just had Surgery with Dr. Brengman also.

How is everything going with you all?

Any support groups to recommend other than

Dr. Brengman's Henrico group?

      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! 😞
