Called my insurance (UnitedHealth Care) and was told that though I have 2 more months I'm guaranteed surgery.

I would be lying if I said I didn't break down crying!

I had been freaking out about weight loss (or lack there of) and was told that it does not matter. Of course I don't want to gain more. It's just great to know that now I can breathe a little easier!

Hoping these next few months fly by!!! I'm hoping to be bypassed by my bday

I won't be officially done with my preop stuff until October. They claim that it'll take 4 weeks for a date lol. My bday isn't until December 10

      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! 😞
