Your stories have left me awestruck! I'm now scheduled for November 17th, and so far I've lost 30 lbs. If I should be as successful as you all have been, I think I would be speechless! Literally speechless! I hope you are all feeling mighty proud of yourselves~I sure am!!

WELL DONE!

I wanted to click mention on all the post, but I am sure ya'll will read it...congrats on your weight loss, and if your not telling yourself how proud you are OF yourself...I will tell you..for you..I AM SO PROUD OF ALL OF YOU.

I am due for surgery the day before Thanksgiving, any and all advise is useful to me right now as my nervous/excitement/anxiety level kicks in high gear.

I am one that does good with...just tell me what to do...and I will do it...I have a leadership type personality..but when it comes to this...nothing has worked thus far in the past trying to take control over weight issues...so now..I just want to be told what to do....and that is what I will do.

So if any of you have the time....can you walk me through one of your average daily food menus and what kind of exercise you are doing. I would greatly appreciate it.

I have had some awesome dreams of succeeding with this gift (sleeve) but I have also had some nightmares of me failing. Is this normal behavior pre-op?

Almost 5 months and down 70 pounds. Not only is the difference obvious on the outside, but I am feeling great inside too. No more aches and pains. No more high cholesterol. No more CPAP machine. The benefits of this surgery are unbelievable to me. This was the best decision I have ever made!

Eclectick, I believe that the majority of us fear failure for brief moments before survey! Why, the one thing we had been successful with, was our diet failures!!! I am 12 days post op. I have ready to drink and powders on hand, along with broths, cream Soups and sf Popsicles. The salty broths are a nice reprieve from the sweet shakes and adding a little pepper adds more flavor and less " oh great, broth again" feelings. Swanson has flavored broths. I used tortilla flavor (fairly spicy for tummy) with cream of chicken and it was very good. The have hot and sour, Tuscany... Just nice changes. I also suggest Syntrax Nectar. I like fuzzy navel, and heard good things of caribbean cooler. Mix up the night before so it is good and cold. 46 Protein with two scoops. I add more Water and ice and drink that throughout the morning or afternoon. Good luck

Hi! I am almost 9 months out. Down about 100lbs (254 to 155), from a size 20/22 to a 8/10 pants, 2xl/3xl to a med/large top. I NEVER thought the surgery would be this successful. I am 100% happy with where I am now (weight wise). My friends are actually telling me to stop loosing weight. I have to agree, I can see my collar bone, it's not pretty. I need to focus on toning. I never thought I would say that!!! I wouldn't trade this surgery for anything!! Congratulations everyone on your success!

      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... :(
