Just got everything finalized last week for my Dec 28 surgery! excited and nervous, but mostly excited!! My husband had it done 1 1/2 years go so I do kind of know what to expect.... and I have great support from him.

Will be all liquid on Christmas, so we'll see how that goes. :/

Can you have your chewable vitamins the 2 days before surgery? My date is Dec 8th & I'm supposed to be clear liquid 1 day before surgery date.

MsMe, my paperwork says to stop all Vitamins, and certain medications like ibuprofen, one week before surgery. I know that ibuprofen acts like a blood thinner and so does some vitamins, so, I believe that is why they want you to stop these things one week prior to surgery. Of course, you should probably get this confirmed with your doctor.

Dec 28th for me too! And I'll be on my pre op diet starting 12/14 so no Christmas Desserts for me either. I'm also excited and nervous but life is still going on and so much to do at work and home that I don't have a ton of time to think about it. But I'm super excited! Happy new year to us! Best wishes on your journey!

      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!!

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
