Hi, saw your post. I recently had my VSG surgery on 8/15/2014. I think my stats are very close to yours. Pre op weight 239, 5'4" (still think I am 5'5") BMI 41.0.

Today my weight was 232.5. My Husband did his sugery on 7/12/15. He is down 33lbs.

I think it would be great to have a buddy through this journey. So far all is well and feeling pretty good.

Good luck with your surgery. I blew it up more in my head than I needed to. It was actually a great experience.

Let me know what you think.

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to check in on you. I'm not sure if you a home yet. Here's hoping all is well, and surgery and recovery are going well. Biggest piece of advice I can give you right now is drink, drink, drink. I have already found myself dehydrated. Really not used to drinking all day long. Used to just chug a glass of Water just to say that I drank Water. Now it takes my significantly longer to even get down 1 glass. Literally having to remind myself to drink. Im figuring it out. When you get a chance drop me a quick note to let me know how you are doing. Also, here is my cell in case its easier to text. 480-329-1005.

      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! 😞
