Praise the Lord I'm approved



Recommended Posts

I just found out that my surgery has been approved by the insurance company. On August 20th I start a new chapter in my life. I'm nervous and excited. This has been a big decision and I am praying I have a healthy and successful journey. I am 46 been overweight Almost all my life. My husband is on board but nervous about the surgery. I have 2 children my daughter who is 26 and excited for me and a 15 year old by who is nervous about me having the surgery too. Now that I'm at the end of the mandatory requirements I feel relieved. My next thing is the 2 week diet before my surgery. One week of that I'm on vacation. I have to be diligent and stick to the program. But I'm sure it won't be easy.

Make the Protein shakes, yogurt taste as good as possible. I recommend the book, "The Bariatric Foodie Guide to Perfect Protein Shakes."

      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! 😞
