Hi everyone! I just wanted to check in. Today I had my pre-op appointment. Did labs, signed a bunch of papers and was given my pre-op diet instructions. Time is fast approaching because it seems like Tuesday, October 14th will be here before I know it! I'm sending happy calming vibes to everyone!!!

I'm right behind you????

I'm scheduled for 10/27! Counting down......

I'm really now wanting to have a lot of people around - my daughter will be with me the first day. Who are you having with you for surgery and post op recovery. Should I have my mom come in - I'm single.

I'm scheduled for the 22nd..My husband will be with me until I come out of surgery and walk the halls...I probably won't want anyone to stay over night..this way I can rest..lol

Wow! That is awesome. How are you feeling?

  • I am going to have my husband there for the surgery. My dad is coming up for the afternoon and my friend is taking off the next couple of days to be with me. I still haven't decided if I'm telling people outside of my family and close friends. I'm having my gall bladder removed also so I might just tell about that for a while.

You are so prepared. I have some things but I'm not that prepared. I'm going to make a list of what I still need and pick those things up tomorrow. Excited and nervous and hungry lol.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
