Feb 9 surgery



Recommended Posts

Hello all! My surgery is set for feb 9 and I start my liquid diet on Tuesday. I'm excited, nervous and everything other emotion you can think of. Right now I'm most worried about the 2 weeks and getting though that.

Yeah I'm 2/9 as well. I start my 2 week low carb tomorrow. Just scared and add the anxiety it makes it hard. I kinda wish it would hurry and be done. Lol but then I would worry about the next thing. Lol

What an exciting time for you. I had RNY surgery on 5/27/14 and have done amazingly well. The two weeks on the liquid diet will fly by, trust me. Now that you have a surgery date, you will find it's easier to stick to the plan than you can imagine. I was a big time food addict and had no trouble with hunger or urges to cheat. It's so exciting that you are strongly motivated to succeed! Best of luck!

Hi everyone! Surgery date was Feb 5th. Weight was 317, this morning was 290.2. Feeling nauseous almost everyday, hard to get my Protein in because everything tastes like crap. Drinking lemon Water everyday does help. How is everyone else doing?

Sounds like your doing great! Hitting those milestones like into the 2's are awesome. I am still pre-op, am having my surgery in a couple of weeks on March 30th. I'm sure I will have the same issues as you. I know it helps me to read all these forums to know what expect. That way I won't be shocked by anything I feel or come across! I think this site has prepared me way more than my MD has in the 1 visit I've seen him before he operates on me lol. Plus I've made a couple of friends. I see you are new too. I hope you enjoy the support and message me anytime.

      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! 😞
