My bariatric center contacted me, then a few hours later they contacted me directly because my surgeon is out of network and they wanted to make sure I was aware of that.

I saw the surgeon for the 1st time April 3. I had an endoscopy and barium swallow April and May. 1st Nut visit June 3, 2nd July 10, and 3rd August 8th (I think) final weigh in 9/3. Submitted 9/11 Approved 9/22. Surgery 10/21.

I was a revision approval sleeve to bypass.

      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! 😞
