So I had my preop stuff done today (labs, ekg, and nutrition consult). I'm officially down 16 pounds from 22 days of preop diet and am ready to roll for surgery tomorrow!!! Super antsy and want it to be done!!!! The hotel and staff are amazing and their chicken broth is unbelievably yummy!!! Now I get to busy myself with some shopping!

You totally have this! I was in your spot a couple days ago. I'm so thrilled already with my decision, so proud of myself. You will be too. Getting to this point is the hardest part. Best of luck!

It really hasn't been bad. I was the first one for today and I've been up walking and sipping Water and juice. I did vomit twice after both times they gave me IV pain medicine. It was just toradol not even a narcotic I'm a really weenie with meds though. My throat is sore from tube but nothing bad and one incision is a little sore but still not bad. Oh and didn't have to have a grain. All is easy peasy so far!

I've got crazy hiccups now. That's a little on ouchy side for sure! I didn't keep it a secret from anyone but I definitely had people telling me not to do it. Just diet and exercise more. Those people obviously didn't understand me. I would tell them I am doing it because it's the best choice for me and I'm happy that that is what works for them.

      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! 😞
