That's fabulous!!!! I'm very excited you got that behind you. Week is great so far. I'm still on pins and needles waiting to hear back from the insurance. You have a great week and I will text you when I hear my results.

Hi I told my boss and co workers my plans for surgery. Feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. All of them are so supportive for me. Whew hoping you get your good news soon from insurance.

Do either of you have Dr LaMasters? She's my surgeon. I've heard amazing things about her. My primary dr had the sleeve surgery too and she looks amazing!! She said that LaMasters is a great surgeon. Starting my two day liquid diet today!! Woohooo. I'm so ready for this new life. My first grandbaby will be born in April so I'm determined even more to get healthy.

I'm having my surgery there too and by Dr. La Masters! Had a great mtg with her today. I'll be having my surgery early March. Because I smoked ugh I have to wait three months. Then because I'm going on a plane in Feb I can't fly after surgery for 90 days. I'm ok with this though more time to prep and focus on some changes beforehand. I'm so glad to hear great things about our surgeon!

      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! 😞
