Recommended Posts

Me too! :wacko: I keep wondering if something will stop me from having my surgery now that it is here! AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! :o :o

1 day and 2 nights!!!!!!!!! I'm so nervous but mostly excited! Still waiting on that call from the hospital and for some reason I feel hungrier than ever?! I think it's just because I'm so antsy. I have reoccurring "what if's" in my head but I'm trying my best to focus on all the good that's about to come!

What are the thoughts going through everyone else's heads now that the 15th is around the corner??

hoping the worst doesn't happen, can't believe it is finally finally here, last night I was having those crazy hunger induced insane thoughts, I was thinking, WHAT IF I DON'T LIKE MY NEW SMALLER BODY, I'VE NEVER BEEN NORMAL SIZE, WHAT IF IT TURNED IT THAT I LIKED MY BIGGER BODY BETTER? but I know that's just stupid, I have to do this to keep from getting diabetes, my knees going out, so I can have energy, feel better, look better, and most importantly LIVE.

Yes, I'm def worried about that whole "leaving my kids without a mom" thing. But obviously I'm not THAT worried, or I wouldn't go through with it. I left my DH a list of "instructions", just in case. Like, remember to register for summer camps in January. Here is how you make pancakes. Find someone to help you shop for their clothes. Etc. etc. :)

On another note, have you guys ever noticed how delicious chicken broth is? It really is the FULL ESSENCE of chicken. :)

Surgery in 11 hours.

I agree. I'm the only present, acceptable parent they have. Good point, we must not be THAT nervous or we wouldn't do it. broth, I can't believe I'm saying This but this pre op diet has made me picky. I've never been picky so this is new to me. I don't care for any of the 5 different broths I bought, my Protein Powder is too too too sweet, I really only like my eas carb control and my Powerade zero in blue n strawberry and my sugar free popcicles ( I don't normally do sweet stuff and never cared for Jello. I can't believe im picky.

I have been the same way hungry, hungry! Me to the "what if's" are driving me nuts. I am also trying to focus on anything else I can do but it's hard.

I'm having those, I don't want to give up this food or that food, even though I have been pretty good at low carbing it for quite some time. I think I have more of a quantity problem instead of quality. But when I see food commercials or have food thoughts the last few days I can't help but swoon for whatever feeling I get that drives me to eat so much. Ive said it before my stomach has always been larger than normal even as a kid. So I can't wait to not need so much food to satisfy my appetite.

We are all having the some thoughts, my biggest fear is also leaving my kids with out a parent. And the other one is what if I don't like the way I look when I am skinny. I think I have noticed more food commercials in the last two days then ever. I can't even believe the day is almost here. I am leaving everything in gods hands, praying for everything to come out good.

      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... :(
