We're on the same track. Do you know which surgery you're going for? I'm still weighing out both. Apart of me wants the sleeve but I have this fear that it might not work for me

I'm also newer to the process. I've completed an initial consultation, cardiologist visit (had stress test this week), and 2 of 6 nutrition appointments. I see the pulmonologist today. I also have a consultation with another surgeon in a couple of weeks. I want the sleeve. The first surgeon I met with suggested the duodenal switch, but I don't feel comfortable with the DS at all - he was ok with that.

Best wishes on your journey!

      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! 😞
