nerves . Did anybody else have this problem?

@@WatchXXhrink

many, many of us!!!

its understandable to be nervous

scared before surgery :huh:

you are about to have major/life changing surgery :blink:

it would be in vain if i tried to tell you stuff to help you calm down <_<

you've probably been awake all night ;)

while they are doing surgery, take a nap :)

"they" know what they are doing

you'll wake up PO with the knowledge that you are about to embark on a new happier, healthier, longer life.

Who deserves it more :blush:

good luck :)

Best of luck today - you got this.

Yes, I was very nervous...nearly backed out the day of surgery in admitting. I wanted to flee, but am so happy I didn't. This was a life changer and life saver for me. Had I known then what I know now 18 months later...I wouldn't have been nervous I would be saying, "Let's go Doc. Let's do this thing!"

Let us know how you're doing!!!!!

      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! 😞
