My date is 10/3. Tomorrow will be the 10th day of pre opt. Feeling sluggish and slow. I read in this forum about people and their complications. Now I'm nervous and frightened. Want to cancel my surgery. Please help.

You're almost there. A fresh start. Hang in there. Mine's 10/6 and I'm really nervous too but I keep telling myself the reward is my wellness even though the road is hard. Remember, everyone with a bad story is more than willing to share it (not necessarily a bad thing) but the successful ones are most often not heard from afterwards. Everyone is different. Your story will truly be your own. You never know, but MOST of the time the results are good, you just don't hear about it as much from others.

Wow..Monday is quickly approaching for my surgery and boy am I nervous! I think it's the unknown of what to expect that is feeding my anxt. I've thought about having this surgery for several years and it's finally here! I'm excited about this journey and pray I'm successful! All I think about is food right now....is that a bad sign that I'll screw this up? I miss my wine with my meals. Well, no sense in stirring all this up so bite the bullet and do this already! I know why I'm here and I know I can do this!

Mines on the 16th and I start my 2 week pretty op diet on Sunday. I feel very excited but SO anxious. I've list 17 lb in 6 months and it has been hard going but I wanted a good start before surgery. Then this week I have put on 5 lbs due to snacking so I'm on a bit of a downer now as to how bad the pre op diet will be. I think I am motivated enough to stick to it but I fear it will be so hard to get through. I know this will be my new beginning but I feel so cross with myself that I let myself come to this obese stage having been a very slim teenager . I'm 55 so I know this is my last chance really. Roll on November when this waiting anxiety is over! Good luck to you all and I look forward to this time next year when we can post about our new lives x

I bought a recumbent exercise bike so I can get plenty of cardio in before and after my surgery. My goal is an hour's pedaling each day, which should burn off nearly 1k calories a day.

I figure that every little bit helps.

      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! 😞
