After a year of a pre-reqs and a battle with my insurance company and the painful slowness of my surgeon's office staff I FINALLY got my surgery date!!

July 1st 2015 - 2 days before my 40th birthday! :D I guess there will be no cake for me! ;) LOL

I have one last nutrition appointment before the hospital can submit for approval again I was unfortunately denied the 1st time. If all goes well I plan on having surgery July at the latest. I figured I would post :) I am in need of a little support going into the surgery. I know I'll be fine but my nerves are definitely getting the best of me. :)

Tomorrow is your big day!! Congrats and be blessed!

Hi yall - my surgery was at 9:30 and all went smoothly! My surgeon was really awesome and made it an out patient procedure I have been home since about 2:30. I've been sleeping a lot since then and taking the long way to get anything I need so I can get some extra walking in. (It's raining outside so I'm stuck doing laps in the house haha!) Right now my only issues are the trapped gas and tenderness in the incision where the stomach was pulled out. My goal right now is to just get some Water in - which is a very slow process!

Luckily my momma has been able to help me through it since she's just now starting normal food!

Happy to be on the losers bench and can't wait for everyone to join! Good luck to those who are having their surgeries soon!

@@bnm4 Wow!!! Congrats! I've heard that setting an alarm for every five minutes and then drinking a medicine cup full of Water every time the alarm beeps helps tremendously.

Hope you stay hydrated! Take care.

      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! 😞
