Sleeve March 31st. Nervous as hell. Not sure how to deal with the emotional eating. Any advice would appreciated!

Not enough room left in stomach to be too emotional of an eater. Gives you plenty of time to refocus your emotions if you listen to your body.

March 22.

Been working on this since last July. I was all set to submit everything to our insurance and found out we were moving back to the US. Feel fortunate that there was a clinic that would take what I had already completed and submit to insurance.

Exploring methods of support to stay on track after the surgery.

Hi all, my date is the March, 28th. After six plus months of supervised diet, my insurance has approved. I am excited and apprehensive at the same time.

I am interested in both the secret and the closed (but not secret) Facebook groups. Will someone please send me an invite to the secret one. My facebook is facebook.com/ramblindad. Thank you.

Hello everyone im finally post op March 16 & wanted to give my March Sleevers some support. The surgery wasnt to bad honestly , hurt alot less than a c section (i had 3). My back hurt the first night, the incisions hurt like a mini cut not to bad.. the gas is the pain, so walk it off. Ask for gas relief medicine or bring Gas X strips..wear loose clothes.. other than that be strong and positive.. good luck my March Sleevers

I'm set for March 31st. Started my liquid diet yesterday and so far, so good. My plan calls for 6 packets of Carnation Instant Breakfast No Sugar Added and unlimited broth, sf Jello and sf Popsicle. I feel like I'm constantly putting something in my tummy.

Surgery went well on March 7. The healing process is going along. Today for some reason or another, I experienced dumping syndrome. Thinking maybe due to drinking my Protein shake too fast. Wasn't a good feeling, only last for about 45 minutes.

Also interested in the Facebook group. Would be great to hook up with others who had surgery around the same time.

SubVet - Thank you for your service. Mr has dolphins as well.

      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... :(
