Recommended Posts

My surgery is tmrw and even though I am excited I am nervous as well. I am looking forward to the changes that are coming in my life and very excited to the new journey.

Heavenly Father, please give your LadyPoet peace and calm as she goes to the hospital tomorrow. Let all who see her prepare for this new chapter know that You are in control. I pray for discernment and wisdom for her doctors. I pray for a swift and uncomplicated recovery. Let her be a beautiful example for all she will accomplish.

Asked in your son's name.

I'm wondering how you are doing too @ladypoet. I'm in Tijuana! The medical center is very nice. Hotel is great. Met the staff and Dr. Ortiz. My bloodwork, ECG, and meeting with nutritionist went well. The hotel serves complimentary broths, popsicles and Water for your stay. Everyone from our driver from the airport to the nurses to Dr. Ortiz has been incredibly friendly and accommodating and overall I feel very ready and assured that surgery tomorrow will go well. I will let everyone know my status tomorrow evening. Hope we hear from LadyPoet soon!

I'm sleeved! It was a rough first 12 hours because the anesthesia made me very dizzy and nauseous. Dr Ortiz and his whole staff at OCC are AWESOME!!

      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! 😞
