I had my surgery done by Atkinson

I wonder if we could attend each other's meetings. I am curious about each doctors information. I wish there was a group in Henderson.

I had my surgery with Atkinson too!

I have been searching for my fellow Nevada peeps! lol glad I found this post. Is there a local group? my work hours never allow me to get to the support group Atkinson has so I'm left with forums. would be great to connect with others in my area.

I tried to see if it was possible to go to Blossom's support group and they told me no because I'm not a patient of theirs. That sucks, the one my doctor has is on the days I work and can't change my schedule.

It does but sometimes I want to actually be at a support meeting to meet people who are local to me.

I've lost 123 pounds since surgery as of last week. haven't checked this week. I went to my 6 month check up on Monday and it says I was two more pounds lighter but I am counting when I am in normal work clothes since that is when I weigh myself.

I had two sleeve surgeries done by Dr. Hucbach with Blossom. My stomach grew back and I put back my weight on from the first one. According to the doctor it is very rare, had the second on March 2015. Had the first one on December 7 2012.

But I am not lossing any weight with the second one, I am back to my old habits and having a horriable time. All stress and medical problems. I haven't been to any group meetings, because I am afraid to live my husband alone. He is very ill. It is very depressing to have this happen.

Derecksgram sorry to hear about your husband. And hopefully you start slowly with different routines so you can start working out so you won't feel bad.

      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.

        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... :(
