Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I just found out I am approved for surgery, and have a surgery date!! I am traveling to a center of excellence in Mexico for my surgery. I am full of so many different emotions, but the biggest one is excitement!

My surgery is scheduled for August 29th. I am really excited/nervous...and a whole mess of other emotions. It's FINALLY all coming together. I'm done caring about what other people think of my decision. This was not an easy decision, or me taking the "Easy Way" out. Thanks for the congrats :) The well wishes mean a lot. You are doing really well since your gastric sleeve. If you could tell your preop self one or two things you wish you knew before surgery what would it be?

I've been struggling with my weight since the 3rd grade. Always up and down, I'm ready to be consistently down and normal. August will be my time...

      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! 😞
