2 days away from Surgery



Recommended Posts

Wow I never thought this day would be here! Today I leave to have my sleeve surgery. When I first started this process I was so scared and nervous however; now I am excited! I am on my 7th day of my liquid diet. While on the liquid diet Monday-Friday was not hard at all however this weekend was hard. I wanted nothing more than to snack, and eat food. Man I miss food!! I am proud to say since I have been on the liquid diet I have lost 12lbs. Losing the weight on the liquid diet has motivated me so much and has taken away my fear of having the sleeve surgery. I am leaving tonight, and will fly out on Tuesday and have surgery on Wednesday. I am all packed and ready to go. I guess as ready as I'll ever be.

I am so ready for this new life! I want put adventure in my life! There are so many things I want to do once I am all healed up; I can't wait!

Please keep me, my doctor, and his staff in your prayers.

Thanks for listening!!

I wish you great success. I remember the time just before my surgery. I was very afraid. Now I am no longer afraid of surgery. Weight-loss surgery was one of the best things I did for myself in my entire life.

      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.

      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! 😞
