Congrats and wow that was quick and even nicer you have a surgery date so quickly, I was approve d in 24 hours and had to do a 6 month weight management and have to wait an additional 4 months to get a surgery date , I am on the preopt liquid diet now and I am having surgery Monday. So I am doing the count down with you lol.

Nice. I don't have a liquid diet. Just one day prior Clear Liquids. And I'm working a 12 hr shift that's gonna be so hard. Lol. Good luck and keep me posted on the 29th the day after. I'll be waiting to see what I may feel like one day later habaha

You lucked out with no liquid diet! I must say I'm pleasantly surprised, now 4 days into it, that I'm not starving. Thank you Protein shakes!! lol Working 12 hrs is not so fun, but at least it will keep you occupied and not thinking about food. I hope this will be like when I had my gallbladder out .. wishful thinking :) Just gives me a few more little scars to add to my collection lmao Wish you the best and will keep you posted, as I hope you will do the same.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
