I thought I wouldn't be having mine until late August/September but they said July and my last appt will be July. I don't have to lose weight either but I can't gain any before the surgery or my insurance will deny me. I'm a smoker but I only have to quit 30 days before. I only have to do preop diet 3 days instead of the week or 10 days I see others have to do it. I guess there are different rules depending on the insurance, the doctor and the patients health.

Sounds like me! I thought my surgery would be June (started the program mid December) but my last nut class is May 2nd and they said I didn't have to wait another month, I could have surgery in May. So woohoo! :)

I'm crossing my fingers real hard for July 11th as my surgery date. When I was at my first appointment, the scheduler threw that date out as my probable date, so I'm clinging to it. She said the surgeon only does surgery once a month at the hospital that I'm required to go to. So if it isn't July 11th, then I'm out to August which would be a bummer. I also have to schedule it around my coworker's vacation times because we aren't allowed to have 2 people off at the same time. And right now nobody has that time off in July. I can only hope everything works out with scheduling.

My last weigh-in and my upper endoscopy are scheduled for May 19 and 20th.

Mine ended up earlier because they schedule my mandatory 6 months of dietician appointments a few days to a week earlier each time. They told me thats how they do it. Lol

I was told after my last apt it takes a week to transcript my surgeons notes. Then they will sumit it to insurance.was told that takes about two to four week to get it back, while thats happening i have to have a meeting with nutrition again and then i guess thats it.

      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.

      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! 😞
