I plan one week off and 2nd week working from home. It's a "behind computer" and on conference calls job so I should be fine.

I'm either overly-optimistic, or totally unrealistic - I'm having my surgery on Friday, 9/18 and I plan to back at my "desk" on Tuesday, 9/22. My BFF had the surgery early December and that was what she did. I have the luxury of being able to work from home, hence my aggressive "back-to-work" timeline.

I had an ovary removed four years ago and I took a week off, and then worked from home two additional weeks.

I would love to hear from anyone who thinks I'm delirious in my timeline.

I'm scheduled for September 21. Just started the process. I must say that I am a bit scared. Not of the surgery but of failing. This is the last resort and the surgery isn't reversible. I am sure that I will get past this, but......

To all of you who just joined this thread welcome!

Pastano it does take a bit to get used to the navigation, if someone responds to a comment they will usually "Quote" it, so you will see the original comment and then their reply below it, I hope that helps you.

steph99, plevine0359,& lorralei Welcome! We also have a fb group if you want to be included either post or send me your email. Although we have both going at the same time we all still post in here as well. I highly recommend taking the time to go back thru this thread (all 40+ pages) and reading what is already posted, it will give you a good idea of where we are all at.

I understand your hesitation. I really recommend watching a lot of youtube videos and reading thru this forum. It really helped me a lot to see and hear what others have experienced.

As a member of this thread and our new FB secret group we share great stuff here but we've become truly friends with each other on the FB page. Even with support from our families, nothing compares to the support of others going thru almost identical preparation and near the same timeline. It's great!

      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
