How's that going for you? What is your insurance and how far into it are you?

It's going pretty good. I'm about a month into it ...I have kern familys currently .Hows the sleeve treating you?

Going really well. 2 months and down almost 55 pounds. Feeling amazing. I had a really rough first 2 weeks but it wasn't the sleeve. I got really sick from antibiotics. Long story. Lol. How exciting. I'm here if you have any questions. Do you currently work out?

I wish I could make a walking group but I don't have a car. I need someone between Fairfield and Sacramento to be my support/walking buddy and to take me to my mandatory Bariatric support group. I still have not gotten the surgery because my dad cut me off and the insurance went with him. But soon I'll have money to buy my own insurance at least for a year and a half so this is my 3rd time trying I refuse to take no for an answer. I need gastric bypass asap because my health is getting worse due to my weight.

      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... :(
