Thank you!

Well it could be Feb, then for me. That's ok. I'm with Kaiser Permanent..

Hmmm

I thought it was 10% of total body weight.. But it only 10%of excess..

That would be about 9-11 pounds for me.. I thought I'd have to lose 25 to get the date.

Yes I will look at your blog. Thanks for the info!

What is your name?

I started my pre-op diet Monday and lost 9 pounds in 5 days. Today is harder for me for some reason. I can only have Protein Shakes, broth, Jello, and I get one pickle pear a day. So random, but it gives me something to look forward to.

Thank you so much for your positive thoughts. Surgery went well. I had some post op complications from human error. Spent 2 nights in El Camino Hospital. My 1st week post op was a little rough. Doing a lot better now.

Went with my mom yesterday and got a medical alert tattoo post-255591-14458191356802_thumb.jpg post-255591-14458191858348_thumb.jpg

I am so grateful my doc didn't make me do a pre-op diet.

The day before the surgery was my only day and I had to do Clear Liquids.

I never would have made it two weeks on a liquid diet!

Me too! I'm so grateful!

      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! 😞
