I am from Minnesota live in Owatonna, Mn, But I am having Gastric Bypass on July 13 at Abbott in MPLS. I start my 2 week liquid diet on the 29th and have my physical that Monday morning. Then I am ready,

niceee!! I was born at Abbott lol but that's cool I want to experience a big wls community within mn to arrange meet ups and go and share stories with others!! Of course not until the time is right but I think it would be awesome!!

Hi! My surgery is July 13, next week I start the liquid diet 2 weeks, I hope this the right decision I really think so its mostly for my health diabetes and my heart the extra weight?? so I know its the right choice just wish it was over and I was on my way DOWN . I am retired so I have a lot of time to think about it I sit and wonder how thin I well get if it well be really hard hoping I don't get sick. Anyway can't worry about something that's not in our hands.Good luck to you and lets keep in touch.

Oh Juno5 where R U up north? We love it up there we did own a cabin on Leavitt Lake by the big Roosavelt. We love all the summer garage sales and shopping in Nisswa,going into Brainard for shopping or movie, we would go to casino at northern lights in Walker, shopping in Walker was fun all those neat brands!!! now we can walk into a store (soon) and we well have sizes to wear or buy.We liked the beach in Walker they had vendors and nice sand my grandchildren loved playing there. You live in Gods Country up there????

      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! 😞
