Morning everyone..August 4th here..got my medical clearance from my GP yesterday..she gave me a copy of the clearance letter AS WELL as faxing it over. I was given that advice from the Pre Surgical group, to avoid any confusion if anything "gets lost in the shuffle". I have to call on Friday afternoon to get my surgery time. Doing the liquid has not been the easiest... But then again, nothing worth having comes easy, right? I am so ready to get on with my life. Hope you all have a great day !!

Congrats on your surgery date. Just waiting for mine. I know how you feel. I'm so ready for this and start new chapter in my life. All insurance needs is my weight for 2012 like really ugh. I did the 6 month weight loss and got shots for my back so now I can exercise. Yeah. I'm just ready for this change too.

It is indeed hard if not impossible. Best bet is to get children's liquid (or chewable tabs) and consult with the pharmacist on upping the dose.

You can also apparently get it on Amazon.< /p>

My VSG is scheduled for August 5th. Feeling a bit nervous, and to tell you the truth... Emotional! Emotional because I haven't told my daughter yet. Trying to think of the positives, while the negatives play a significant role. Sorry for the story... First post on this site... Love it so far!!!

      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! 😞
