Hi, my name is Samantha I'm 46 year old mother of a four year old little boy named Jackson. I have been overweight my whole adult life. I decided to do the gastric sleeve and am working my way to that goal.

I have already been to 2 seminars and my surgeon consult where my pre surgery goal weight loss was 18 lbs. I have already lost 8 lbs so down to 10 more to go..

My nutrition class is July 8th at Kaiser South in Sacramento and plan to be as close to goal as possible so I can get all my other appointments scheduled.

I'm just looking and learning right now and want to thank you all for your help in advance. ..

Quick update. At my goal weight have psychologist appointment August 4th so hopefully a late August early September surgery date!!!!

      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! 😞
