Cherie F...I can't imagine being on liquid diet for 12 days! I am barely hanging on for 5 days! You are a strong person! Just think, only 2 days away! Hang in there, it will be so worth it! Hugs and prayers to you on the 16th!

Newbe 312, this Isopure is not as tasty as the Protein shakes were, but I can do it for a day. So far I am drinking blue raspberry. I have a different flavor for this afternoon and this evening. The time has seemed to drag by, but now that is is the day before surgery, it seems to have flown. I am looking forward to tomorrow. It will be good to get the surgery behind me and move on with my life as a new, healthier, happier person.

I will have you in my thoughts and prayers as you undergo surgery tomorrow too. We will definitely be going through this together. Best wishes. Let's talk again after surgery!!!!!

I'm late returning to the party/group! Good luck to everyone having surgery tomorrow! I report at 5:15 am in So. Cal. Hope I can catch some zzzzs's tonight. And yes, would love to buddy up or be in a group! Like @@songsmith I'm feeling under the weather and have a stuffy nose. Can't do anything now. @@Shiloh2004 I admire you for drinking Isopure, had the grape yesterday and it was fine. The mango/peach is meh so I'm skipping it. The nurse said it was ok so I'll keep it for after surgery.

      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

      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... :(
