@@kmorri This is awesome! Congrats!! You have a great pre op plan. I had 1 lean protein/veggie meal a day and let me tell you, I couldn't wait to cook my dinner and eat! Good luck! Are you have a food Funeral this weekend?? :) I went to some of my favorite places to eat before I started mine.

I finally got my official date and it's 5/16/16!!! I'll be starting my pre-op diet on Monday May 2nd.....but thankfully I get to have food on my pre-op diet. I have one Protein shake and two small low carb meals per day.....and then clear liquids 24 hours prior to surgery.

Trying to not consider it as a "food funeral"......but I will probably have dinner out somewhere with my hubby on Sunday just because I know it'll be a while....but I'm not going to have anything crazy.....I've actually been looking forward to being able to start doing something to take off some of this weight.....I've been stuck during the pre-op phase with not being able to lose anything in order to ensure I qualified....So now I'm ready for this new start!!

Me too!!! 5/16 here as well!

I am scheduled on 16 May 2016 for gastric sleeve surgery with Dr. Nilesh A. Patel in San Antonio, Tx. Anybody know him or have anything to share about him? I am a low BMI of 35 and my insurance just approved the surgery after trying for almost a year. I am excited, but scared at the same time. That's only 2 weeks away from now!

I just got my date today, and we have the same date! 5/16/16. Yay!

@@FabFemale, thank you! I saw that on Etsy and love it. I ordered it weeks ago and haven't received it. I'd love to get it before my 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... :(
