Pre-op 45 year old here...My first post



Recommended Posts

Sup all...I currently pre-op working through my checklist of all the medical test and screenings. I am shooting to get a surgery date in April/May. I see there hasn't been any post in this area in a long time. Hopefully I can connect with patients in my age group, but Any age is welcome though. Holla if you want. In the meantime, I will keep checking out post in other areas.

Hi Kats. Thanks. I need the luck. I just hit a slight snag. I have to have some blockage cleared from an artery before I can proceed. But I am glad I am finding out now. After that I should be able to get a surgery date.

Good luck to those with upcoming surgery dates. I had an angiogram procedure this past week that has set me back, but I am back on track and hope to get a surgery date soon.

Hi everyone, I don't have my surgery date yet!!!! but have psych eval in April my journey is getting close to begin. I'm 47 and still not sure what surgery between sleeve and RNY will be better for me. Waiting after Endoscopy to find out. I have Gerd and hopeful after results will determine my procedure.

No surgery date for me yet. I am still optimistic and am looking forward. I'm still dropping pounds and will exceed my pre-op goal soon. As soon as I get a date I will let everyone know.

      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! 😞
