So, it's 0457 and I have slept all I am going to sleep, still tired but way too wound up to go back to bed. Honestly I am shocked I got as much sleep as I did. So in a scant 6 hours I will be under the knife, closing one chapter of the book of life and opening a new one. Honestly, the last chapter was so full of heartache and sorrow, I do not miss seeing it go. I am now fixated on the future. WIsh me well.

Wish you the best, praying for a complication free surgery and a speedy recovery.

Best of luck to everyone making their old/new transition today! I was released yesterday and with the exception of some pain (totally manageable) and a leaky drain sight, I'm great! I haven't been able to keep up with everyone this weekend as I had my phone and the app kept crashing so I'm playing catchup. I LOVE reading all the posts of those of us about to start this leg of the journey. If you are about to have your surgery, trust me, it's over in a flash. There is some discomfort but I can tell you, if you get up ASAP and walk, it'll make all the difference. Even if you let out a howl (like I did) when you get up out of that bed, DO IT. The sooner you are up and moving, the quicker you will recover. You can't wait to read about everyone's progress!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
