Kwalla_girl Says Hello



Recommended Posts

Hello All

I have been lurking on the forum for a while now, and I decided it’s time to introduce myself. I’ll be taking the “plunge” on May 31st with Dr. Yau. This forum has been a great tool in helping me make my decision to get the band and in deciding which doctor to choose. Thank you all for sharing your experiences. I’m sure I’ll need lots of support in the coming months and it’s very reassuring to know there is such a large group out there who knows what I am going through and will put up with my whining. ;)

Hi there!!

I am being banding the day before you by Dr. Cobourn! Nice to meet someone who is having their band at the same time as me!

This is a terrific place to be, lots of wonderful like minded people to talk to!

Thank you all for replying.

Yoda, I would be so happy to show your progress a year from now. I have seen the pictures you posted and the transformation is amazing. Congratulations and good luck going forward.

LeslieLee, I agree. It’s going to be great to have someone who is going through the same things as me. And lots of people to let me know that: No one has yet died from too much CC & or other concerns that are sure to come up.:heh:

      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! 😞
