Kensington, they were checking me for acid reflux. Which I haven't had in 13 years. Hopefully you won't need it.

Thanks. It makes sense they need the study to map their path during the procedure and rule out other issues. Thank you!

Keep your head up. Never know it could be Water weight gain. Also maybe their scales are different that your wls office too. All 3 of my Drs say I weigh a different amount

My consult day was 5/20, I was 275lbs... today 6/29... I'm 278... I've been eating like a mad cow... because I quit smoking on 5/28. I'm almost too the point where cigarettes don't phase me, but the habit of eating is a habit I don't need. 3lbs isn't bad.

I finally got my date....August 10th. Requested the Insur admin at the office to check with the hospital for possible dates and it was available...Yeah! I really wanted to have is done before my kids went back to school. Now all I have is the last Nutritional visit on July 10th, then submit to insurance for approval. My Endoscopy is scheduled for July 17th.

I had a year program ???? I graduate September 30th. Fingers crossed I'll be sleeved early October.

Do you all get free Protein powder samples? If so, how? Please share where I can sign up for a variety of samples.

I emailed info@bariatricchoice.com and they sent me a link to order free samples.

One step closer... I have my psych eval tomorrow and I'm nervous. Haha, I worry that he'll see a need for more visits. Yikes! Then 3rd Nut visit on the 6th and only 1 left! Aug 31 would be perfect for me. Fingers crossed.

Time is getting closer for all of us. Seems like such a long road. But very very worth it. 6 months seems so long, but saw where someone else on here had to wait a year. I ordered the injury sample pack and Vitamins. Anxious to try. I've not cared for any pre mixes yet, but need more selection for variety.

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
