Oh my gosh! Three more days and I will be sleeved. I am so anxious. Last night was my last night at work till after the New Year. Everyone was giving me hugs and telling me they can't wait to see the "new me" and reassuring me that I will not die on the table! That is my big fear. I know I will be fine after the surgery, its just making it to that point! I cannot wait to get this over with. My mantra....patience grasshopper. Good luck everyone....hope to see you all on the other side of the process!! p.s. prayers are most certainly welcome :)

I am new here and my surgery date is December 15 at 730 AM. I am so nervous and excited at the same time. Maybe it would not be a bad thing to find a buddy since no one I know knows what I am feeling or going through.

I was sleeved in September on the 15th. I had a hernia. Didn't know I had it. No complications! Good luck to all!!!!

Waiting to set a date with the Dr.'s office, but it will be around December 18th.

I was blessed that the six month process and medical approval for surgery (Medicaid) went through so quickly and without any denial hassles.

We should all get on here throughout the month and support each other, we're going through a life changing event this month/holiday season.

Bought all sorts of goodies today. New flavor Protein Powder, calcium chews & flavored liquid calcium citrate, chewable b complex & Biotin (currently taking pills) and I even found liquid black cohosh which I'm totally stoked about. Can't wait to try the new Proteins. I bought cinnamon graham cracker, banana marshmallow and vanilla caramel. Hopefully I'll like all of them but luckily my hubby is on liquids too and he's not as picky as me ;)

      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... :(
