Diana .... I feel the same way about letting them all wonder :) just got back from my nutrition appointment .... It went great . I lost 10 lbs which was fine ...I see her one more time . Then just wait for the call for them to schedule my appointment with the surgeon . Can't wait to be where you are at and just waiting for your surgery :)

Thats great! I'm sure she will sign off at your next visit and you'll be on to meeting Dr. Johnson! As long as all of your other paperwork is in, it should take about a week for them to give you a call to schedule your pre-op with him and then a surgery date!!! Dr. O'Malley could have gotten me in for surgery the week following our consult, but if you are on birth control, you need to be off of that for 4 weeks prior due to blood clots. I would've stopped taking much sooner had I known that :) The count down is killing me though....I just want it to be here already!!!

I took about 6 months. He is a very good surgeon. The hospital stay was excellent the whole nursing staff is great. He has a very good team from his office to the team that he use in the hospital. When he comes to see u after your surgery he brings in the whole team that he use to help him perform the surgery. They come every day till u leave.

      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! 😞
