Oh believe me as soon as they call me/email me to let me know the orders are in for my blood work I will be at Kaiser ASAP! It isn't very far from me. I've been checking kp.org all morning lol.

Best of luck to you! I went through Kaiser and I remember the process like it was yesterday. I thought my surgery date would never arrive. And then finally it was here, and all the agony of waiting was gone... like it never happened.

I'm a year out now and couldn't be happier. I would do it all over again in a second!

You're going to love your new life!

I Just finished my 12wk option classes with Kaiser in Fontana,Ca. August 2. All by labs and my visit to a support group is all done. Im just waiting for an appt. w/ therapist for mental evaluation, bariatric physician and surgeon. If I dont hear anything by August 30, I am to call Kaiser. Hopefully I get a call this week. The classes are great. So much necessary information to keep you prepared throughout the entire journey. Take lots of notes and get to know the ppl in your class. It helps to form a support group while taking the class. I drove about 1/2 hr to class and ended up meeting my classmates and learned they lived near me. Good luck!

The funny thing is that when I was leaving orientation, my next door neighbor was outside & apparently she's taking her last class this coming week! This will be awesome. We don't have much in common but we've talked a few times in the last 5 years that I've lived here (they've known my dad for 20 years). I'm really excited about all of this. I know it will go by fast. I just want to be on the other side of it already lol.

      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! 😞
