I got my date yesterday! October 15! I cannot believe it's in less than two weeks! Woooo-weee! This journey started 5 months ago. I know some wait longer, but I'm shocked that they date is already here! I have no pre-op diet, just liquids on the day before surgery. Wow! :-)

I Just had my last nutritionist visit yesterday and I'm scheduled for 10/28. I'm starting to feel nervous now but exited as well. I'm looking through the forums to get an idea of what liquids I should get for the pre op and post diet

I'm done! Everything went well. This is one of the few times I don't want to eat. Just getting the liquids down is hard. Right now all I can say is thank goodness for pain meds! The only thing I could compare it to was my 2 C-sections, they were 20+ years ago and this pain is nothing like that.

      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! 😞
