I was 37 with three kids when I did the surgery and I have no regets.. It has changed my life in so many ways... Yes I eat different but the trade off is so worth it... My kids and I can do things together, mom can dance and even help around the house without having to take so many breaks..I just got my first teaching job and I can teach all day and come home and still have time for them.... Do what is best for you... Is what you have now the life you want for yourself and your kids? I wanted more for them then just taking care of their mom, I wanted to be able to care for them...

I'm the same Jk. I started this process 12/18 with a seminar and am scheduled for surgery on 2/10. Yes, it's fast. Yes, my head is still spinning. But, I've been thinking about this surgery on and off for years! I think I just have a case of nerves. I'm a natural worrier and tend to always second guess myself. I know this will improve my life. I just need to keep that in mind and not let my worry wart nature get the best of me! Take a deep breath, write all the pros and cons down on paper, and talk with your loved ones more. I'm bless, my have been very encouraging. Hugs to you.

      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.

      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! 😞
