Good luck ladies. I'm too excited to sleep. I go in at 7/730 AZ time. Still have some nervous doubts but I'm confident everything will be alright.

May God's hands be on all of us today & may the surgeons and staff be on too of our game. May our anesthesia and drugs be great! But our recovery and progress better.

Yesterday was rough! Nutritionally I'm doing well. Had my surgery 1 week ago today and I'm down 5lbs, so happy about that! But about this energy thing - what's up with that! I folded half a basket of laundry and then had to rest up to take a shower. My hubby told me I'm over-doing it but, compared to normal me, I'm really doing nothing! Please tell me my energy level will improve soon!

I am a couple days short of being two weeks post op. Threw up for the first time since leaving the hospital. It was totally my fault. Was in a hurry to make an appointment and tried to quickly take my BP med the "choke" down those nasty chewable vitamins I take in the morning. I have to learn to slow down. As a result lost my Protein and Water. Starting over at a slower pace, but I'm skipping my morning Vitamins. Thank god this liquid phase is almost over.

Just checking in with you guys to see how it went ? I am barely tolerating a few bites of Jello. It tastes really sweet. Mostly ice chips and tea for me.

Doing okay with Water, water with mio, sugar free Popsicles. Just had two oz broth and doing okay. Headache comes and goes, just keep sipping fluids. I know next week will be better.

Yeah my headache comes and goes too. I've been able to get some ice chips down, about 3oz of chicken broth and am now sipping on about an oz of tea. Not too bad, aside from the heart burn its giving me and I've been having a pain in my chest (left side) so they are calling the doc about that.

      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... :(
