Who did you see? I have been given a choice to see 2 doctors, one in Santa Rosa, and another one in San Francisco. I live up in Humboldt County.

I would take off longer than 2 weeks it's really an adjustment notime about the pain

I'm limited on my benefit time at work so I was hoping to take 2 weeks off without anyone knowing I'm having surgery...HR isn't very professional nor are most of my colleagues so I'd rather be private ...at the most I could take 3 weeks but it would deplete my hours...

Well I'm in Ohio-15 miles from the center- any Buckeye RnY or even sleevers to share my journey? Life longer Buckeye fan;/shook hands with Woody Hayes and Howard Hopalong Cassiday when I was 8 years old. I d even like Big 10 buddies, I can sing On Wisconsin and Hail to the Victors Valiant as well as Carmen Ohio. My friend from Petosky Mich made me sing it every year OSU lost to them!

It's just a mental thing u have to remeber you will be on all liquids and people will notice you are not eatting and getting in the routine. I know people who did the two weeks I myself wasn't prepared for what I was up against

      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! 😞
