@@cmhueto I am the founder and admin for the FB groups, it is a closed group because if I make it secret I have to be "friends" with every one to be able to add them. With it being a closed group people can search for it and seek out the support. Yes IF someone wants to search for the group to see the list of (over130 members) to see your name then yes they can. But NO they can not see anything that is said or that goes on in the group. I do have some member of the

If you would like to join search FB for "San Diego Kaiser Bariatric WLS support group" or "San Diego Pacific Bariatric support group" you should get a message from me (Kendra) asking how you heard about the group and if you are pre or post op. These simple questions help me to weed out people that are not interested in the group but just trying to troll.

also your calorie intake looks about right for 12 weeks out. I know it is hard for people to fathom pre-op but your calories for the first 6 months or so are very low. Your main focus is on that Protein shake and your fluids. I still drink 2 shakes a day. I also go to Kay's nutrition class often, she helped me to feel confident that I was doing things right at each phase. Kay Rethwisch 858-573-5229 you can also call Pacific Bariatric any time you don't know if something is right or if you are not feeling quite right. the post-op questions number is 619-298-9931

Good job and keep up the good work 42 lbs is awesome! be proud of your progress!!

      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! 😞
