Surgery date that is. ;) June 4!! I got approved by Cigna less than 24 business hours! (Filed on Friday at noon. Approval Monday morning.) I was so surprised! Now I am finally anxious because it is real! It was just sort of an idea up to this point. 4 weeks from today - I am sure it will go by fast...

I got my date to by Oxfords. My surgery its June 15. I'm excited!! Can't wait. I was able to do it sooner but due to the three weeks of after surgery that we have to take off. I chose that date. It's so real now. Soon I will have to start the liquid diet.

Hey! I got my date too! June 17. It's a Wednesday, so barring complications, I should be out by Friday or Saturday. I'm a revision from band to RNY, doc says he does his in one shot most of the time. I hope I'm one of those times. Then I got hubby for the weekend, yeah!

I CANT WAIT!!!!!!

I just got mine today which is June 15th. I had to wait for a few months to get mine, because my

daughter had gallbladder surgery. This is the best mother's day gift I could ask for. Now it's

just a flurry of pre-op testing and getting clearance from my drs. two weeks before surgery. Wish-

you all the best of luck!

Sounds good to me. Even though I am nervous, I know I'm doing the right thing.

Yes, we will do great! Just wondering how I will feel on seeing my dr. on June 4th after being on the liquid diet since the 1st. Hope I have the energy to go out, lol.

I know we'll all do great. As long as we follow the rules and question, question, question we should be fine.

My surgeon has only put me on the liquid diet the day before surgery. Maybe, just maybe cuz I've lost 37 lbs since I first went in to tell them I want the revision. IDK.

      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.

        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... :(
