Hi, my name is Kristina and I just had the sleeve done here in Boise ID by Dr. Korn 3 weeks ago. I am doing great! I am only 28 years old but I have severe back prolems and have been on many pain meds for awhile now. I am proud to say I am off all my meds and down 20lbs already! The worat part of it all is the head hunger and smelling the food I cook for my family and then having to drink protien shakes and pureed food :( BUT...I know this too shall pass and it will be well worth it for my future!

Okay so I sent you a reply message butfor some reason I am not able to find it now lol. But again hi April! Its nice to meet you on here ;) just curious what is the RNY? I have heard some people talking about it but ot sure what it is the doctors do? Thank you! It definitely has not been easy at all but will be well worth it. Good luck on the surgery! I wish you a speedy recovery and lots of success!!! Thats funny we are from california! We moved here about 5 years ago for my husband's parents but I sure do miss cali!! Its gets boring out here and so so cold! But its better for raising a family and alittle cheaper but not much from where we lived in stockton. But I miss my family there, its such a battle trying to figure out where to settle but I think its time to take a trip out there and see what its like again. ;)

      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! 😞
