My surgery is on the 27th. The closer it gets, the more emotional I get. I am angry at myself that I got myself this unhealthy that I need this surgery. My emotions are just all over the place.

Pre op diet at work was the worst. Better get used to it, though, because you're going to go through it with your post op diet, too.

The day before my surgery they had a ton of free food (lunch, ice cream celebration for something, Snacks, etc). It made me crazy!

Day 12 post-op....feeling good and looking great! My only regret is that I allowed my weight to soar to almost 300 pounds!!!! This was absolutely the right choice for me and I thank God for the ability to save my own life. Yay!!!

My hubby is looking at me these days with those love eyes... I smile knowing he's pleased. How long did you all wait before having sex again?

I had my EDG today... Oh my goodness I am such a baby!!! I got all emotional and started with the feelings of how did I even get to this point. I am requesting something to take the edge off day of surgery, and I hope they will approve that. I am a super emotional person!!! Anyways on a funny note... When they brought me back to the room after the procedure I told my husband the gave me 30 glasses of wine to relax me.... Lol!!!!

My wife had a panic attack and canceled her surgery on the day of. They can prescribe something to calm your nerves if you request it.

I'm day 12 and starting on soft foods. So far so good. Last night I even went out with friends and had Mexican food. I had a couple bites of guacamole and about half the meat from a taco and didn't have any problems. I felt so decadent! Ha Ha

      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... :(
