Cool. I am in Goochland. I had a band to rny conversion on June 3. I will be happy to be a support buddy with you if you are interested. Who is your doctor?

My WLS mentor had Halmi and has been incredibly successful. If I wasn't kaiser, thats where I would go.

My last NUT appt was 4/20. I think my approval was early May. My consult was 5/29 and I got my date early/mid June . You have to pick up all of your RX and have any followup scheduled (I needed sleep medicine) before they submit you to scheduling. Mine took longer bc dr cantor was in the hospital more and in the office to deal with paperwork less. Now that Dr McArthur is back, should be smoother.

      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! 😞
