I am home after having sleeve on Wednesday, after being stuck in the bed all day I asked the nite RN to take off my machines for awhile and let me go walking, it made her laugh when I took off down the hallway across the hospital in my town and boxer briefs, also asked my DR. To let me come home yesterday since I was off all my machines and ready to start doing for myself, my wife has been a wonderful motherhennish type of girl, don't get me wrong the pain is there but a lot better than at the hospital, and I slept all nite here, I still have yet to experience the "buyer's remorse" maybe cause I psyched myself up too much, I can't wait to see what tomorrow holds for me, this is very exciting, and I can't wait to put everything I've learned into practice, to all potential future bariatric surgery peeps, the answer is YES! I would do it again in a second !!

Oooohh beware the buyer's remorse. Im not in for my op until august, and i am paying privately also , so i hope i dont get the buyer's remorse. Lol. I think im going to prepare myself for that by writing myself a letter, to myself before surgery explaining why i am doing this and how its going to change my life for the better. And on that day when or if it ever comes, i am doubting myself if i made the wrong descsion and have blown all that money for nothing. I will open my letter to remind me of why this is so important to me and motivate me to make the most out of this amazing opportunity to a happier and healthier me.

      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! 😞
