When it starts to set in that you only have 1 more diet visit, and a class left...

Can you say nervous?!

I'll be a whole new person this time next year!!! And cue the tears in 3... 2... 1...

That is exactly the way to think about it. Where will you be in the next year!

For me although I was nervous the night before, my surgery day was like Christmas morning and I was getting the gift of a lifetime!

Now 2 years later I am at goal maintaining. Had my first plastics almost 3 weeks ago. I wear a size 8 clothes which has never ever happened in my life.

Best of all I have more energy and feel so much younger because of it.

Congratulations you are well on your way and I am sure surgery will be right around the corner for you!

Keep us posted. :)

Your post resonated with me. One year ago tomorrow I embarked on my RNY journey. It will amaze you that the year flies by. The past twelve months were filled with new adventures and experiences. It only gets better!!!

Congrats to you!

I was so relieved after surgery. I thought now I'm going to see my daughter grow up.

I do have some posted on my profile. I will be posting new ones in the next couple of weeks as I just had an arm lift. Monday I get the dressings off and I can hardly wait. I have been itching like a crazy fool for the last 3 weeks.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
