Hi..new to the group. I am scheduled for the 30th also. I am excited but sooo nervous. I have doubted my decision to have this a few times during my pre-op probably because I was hungry or watching my husband and daughter eating. I know these feelings are normal and I know this is the right choice. I have read a lot of stories on here with people dealing with complications and I'm glad I read them so that I can be informed as much as possible but lately I have been trying to stick to success stories only because otherwise my brain starts spinning! Good luck to everyone!

I'm not scared yet but I'm very ready to be on the other side of the surgery. I had a c-section with my first child so from that perspective I'm not too concerned with the surgery. The permanence of it all makes me pause and then I'm excited for a permanent tool to get healthy! I'm so ready for this!

I had a c-section too & 14 months ago, I am hoping that it is my saving grace come this surgery. Because I was completely fine after!

Welcome my fellow 11/30 sleevers!!! So glad we can help one another come Monday!! I am confirmed for 8:30am!!

Hi just checking in to see how everyone is feeling. I have been walking a lot today. The gas is pretty annoying. Right now it feels like it's in my upper abdomen. It was in my back earlier. Pain is not too bad. Just very sore getting in and out of bed. Haven't had anything to drink yet. Just some Water on a sponge. Had some nausea earlier in the day but that seems to have gone away for now. Hope everyone is doing well. Hang in there!

      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... :(
