Was not totally compliant with pre-op diet. Now I have to go weigh in and see if I can still have sleeve done Wednesday. I pray I can. If I can't do it now, I don't think another week will help. I've waited so long. I'm scared to fail.

Don't even think of the possibility of failure! You can do this! And YOU will succeed!!

Well. I'm on day 10 of liver shrinking. The proverbial half way point. I've been pretty good. Only cheat i had was about 2 kernels of popcorn at the cinema stolen from a mate (i had a tub of blackberries from my allowances and a bottle of sparkling Water as my movie snack) and a postage stamp sized piece of potato bread.< /p>

All in all I have been a good boy so far and can't see myself deviating too much in the next ten days. Still have to try harder with the Protein Shakes though. Sick to the eye teeth of them now but hey ho.

Anybody else gearing for surgery on the 1st of October? I'd love to find a buddy who is getting "knifed" same day as me! :)

To the journey ahead folks and if anybody has just had theirs done and is reading this in a hospital bed then I command you to smile and then take a little walk in my honour.

To the future

Just wanted to let you know, how much I enjoy reading your posts. You have a wonderful sense of humor! :)

I am approaching the final days of my pre-op diet, and really it wasn't so bad. My surgery is scheduled for this Monday, Sept. 21st, today I have my final visit with surgeon & anesthesiologist. Yay!! :D

Here is to a better, healthier, future for all of us!

      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! 😞
