Mine was very stern about 40 pounds I don't know if I'm gnna make it but when it happens it happens I never heard of going on how soft your stomach is because if that's the case in soft all over lol
March 28, 201511 yr My doctor wanted me to lose some and wanted me at 340. I am at 355 right now and when I signed consent for surgery he just said to me lose a little more. Not to worry so much because your 2 week pre opt diet, you will lose a lot. I figured my 2 week diet will put me right at 340.
March 28, 201511 yr I haven't signed consent she just saved that day for me I've already been on this month long prepping diet and this last week in having heart burn that u wudnt believe I'm at a point where I feel absolutely exhausted

March 28, 201511 yr Hi! My date is set for April 28th. Started out at 332, down to 322 now and working on 10 more pounds before surgery. Really ready to get this done!

Mine was very stern about 40 pounds I don't know if I'm gnna make it but when it happens it happens I never heard of going on how soft your stomach is because if that's the case in soft all over lol Everytime I go he feels/pushes on a spot about 3 inches below my bra line to see if it's soften up/ gotten falter in that area. I'm guessing it gives him more room to work things around in there during surgery. Lol I've got to kick my butt in gear on the exercise part.

That's one of the reasons I went with bypass instead of sleeve. I know sometimes when I drink water on an empty stomach I get it. Prayers for healing for you, good luck.
March 28, 201511 yr Hey everyone ???? April 6th LD starts 30th 5'7 HW: 280 CW: 258 I am starting to stress about this coming up so soon ????
March 29, 201511 yr Hello, Everyone! My date is April 21st and at 7:30a.m. I am also 5' 5" tall. Seems to be quite a common height on here ☺️ My highest weight was 298 and as of today I am down to 273. I am quite happy about it because due to the weight lost beyond 5% I only have to do 8 days of full liquid diet and one day of Clear liquids the day before surgery. My surgeons office sent my paperwork to my insurance on the 20th so now I just sit (or walk) and wait to find out whether they are going to authorize this or not. I am terrified they won't approve me right away and I will have to fight them. I already have leave approved and everything in place. I am so happy to have the people here to talk with!
Thought I would start a April buddy board.
My surgery is set for April 21st.
