I get banded tomorrow at 10:45 a.m. I am so excited and nervous! I have made it through the pre-op liquid diet without cheating once!!! It wasn't easy in the beginning but it got easier towards the end! I have learned some valuable things in the process. I know that I will have another two weeks of the liquid diet after the surgery but knowing that I have made it through these two weeks will help. Also I am a little excited because I will be able to have some Soups with the post op phase!!

I am getting banned and having my hiatal hernia repaired. I am nervous about the pain after the surgery. I have a low threshold to pain. I am going to make sure I walk a lot so the gas pains will ease and I also bought some GasX :)

I really hope I don't have to stay overnight. When they called to pre register me they told me to bring my CPAC in case I have to stay over. I really don't want to stay over because I can never sleep in hospitals. Did most of you get to go home after your surgery?

      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! 😞
