My surgery is 25 Aug. I feel nervous and exciting.

I do not know what to expect at hospital I am looking forward to surgery but not all the BS that goes with it.

I guess i do not like hospitals or surgery just want it over.

My surgery is the 25 of august also, this is my second date as the first one July 14 someone between the Drs and health ins dropped the ball.

I just finished up day 2 of my liquid diet, I must say this time ( did 12 days of it before) is the hardest. I am so afraid that something will come up and I will have yet another set back.

Non blonde moment - hit send too soon. I am very sore and very bruised. Going to hit Walmart today to get some walking in - too hot to walk outside. I know this surgery will help me reach my goals but I am the key to making it work. I am sure each day will get better. You are in my thoughts and prayers for those getting ready for surgery and continued healing and success for those who are post op.

It is the beginning of 2nd full day at home. I am napping often - trying to catch up on lost sleep but it sure feels great to be home. My mom came over yesterday and fixed my some puréed food

Glad all is good!

Take a step back, is it gas pain or real pain from the surgery?

Is it better today? Try heating pad on your back and shoulder if it's pain from the gas. Keep walking. Follow your docs instructions and if it's bad call the ofc!

My surgery is August 25. I started my two week shakes this past Monday and threw it up violently. I was on it 3 days before my nut took me off. I am having to to south beach now.

What is everyone's opinion on 2-3 days before surgery if I try the shakes again throwing up or not?

I just don't want them to not do the surgery because my liver is too big.

Should I try again even if I continue to throw it up? That way I can shrink it?

I am one week post op. I am feeling pretty good but still have pain. I have a bruise the size a pancake on my left side. Not sure what it is from but it is there. I start meds for my gallbladder to prevent gallstones. Please do not think you will get any rest in the hospital - I got zero sleep. I begged to go home so I could at least get sleep. Just keep focused on why you are going through the procedure. Aren't moms the greatest - my mom came and purée food for me too. I know this sounds funny but I feel like I don't have a stomach. It does not feel empty nor does it feel full. I am trying to follow the guideline I was given on when I should do what. It is just weird.

Good luck to all those soon having surgery - you will do great.

      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?

      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
