I've been heavy most of my life!

I've tried so many things to lose weight but none worked out.

So I finally decided to have a surgery, I was going back-and-forth between Lapband and gastric sleeve but finally I decided to go along with the sleeve.

I'm not getting any younger will be 27 in April and I want to live my life in a healthy way.

My surgery is scheduled for March 31st (exactly 5 days from today) and I am both excited and nervous!!! :unsure: Looking for some encouragement during this time, anyone else doing the surgery on 31st of March?

Any advice from people who have already had the surgery?

Wish me luck :)

I'm also scheduled for March 31st, with pre op tomorrow. I'm super EXCITED! My husband just had his on March 6th and I was anxious and nervous and every other emotion you can think of, so I got that out of the way with him. My motto is the positivity breeds positivity. Think good thoughts and image yourself doing well postoperatively. Also, remember why you're doing this...a better quality of life! (For most ppl). Also, think of all the wonderful things you'll gain. I wish you a successful journey on your new path of life.

May the road rise to meet you!

My surgery is also March 31st. At this point I wish it would just come on. I'm so tired of thinking about it and worrying. 4 days and counting. Lol.

Same here, totally tired of thinking and worrying about it.

Hope all goes well :)

I'm also scared, but try to distract yourself with anything so that you wont think about it.

Hope all goes well with 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!!

        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... :(
