Looking for 10/13 surgery buddies



Recommended Posts

I'm so sorry that they decided to postpone your surgery :(

Tomorrow is our big day!!!! Did anyone have to lose a specific amount of wait prior to surgery?

I needed to lose 13lbs before surgery, and so far I've lost 27lbs.

I did not. I had to go to supervised weight visits though for 6 months. Did you have to lose a specific amount?

Sadly, my insurance decided YESTERDAY that they need 3 more months of nutrition classes. I'm very upset, sad... So dissapointed because I've done EVERYTHING. I've been doing my liquid diet & all.

I gave myself Friday & Saturday to cry about it & although I'm still upset I'm staying to get over it.

My surgery has been rescheduled for January 19,15.

With that being said I want to wish ALL of you the best of luck tomorrow! Please keep me posted on your progress!

I am so sorry they decided at the last minute to cancel your surgery. =( Keep us posted on your progress!!!

I had to lose 10lbs before surgery but gained 12 during the 5 months of nutrition visits. So it turned into 22lbs. I am going in for the sleeve tomorrow if I lose the last 2.5 lbs today????

Good luck with those last 2.5 pounds!! Hopefully it will come off or be close enough for your surgeon to just give the go ahead =)

Well, I'm finally home from the hospital. I had to stay two nights bc I was having an issue with nausea. Things are going pretty good now though. Still feel sick if I don't pay attention when I'm drinking.

How is everyone else doing?

      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!!

      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... :(
