Ok I just got told I can have the surgery! My weight goes in between 207 to 220. I have to stay where I'm at so I can get it. Now I'm doing it because the women in my family get big in are 30s so I know I'm up and down but I can't get out off the 200 and I don't want to go up more so that's why I'm going for it. My mom also had problems getting the weight off and she had the gastro by pass and she is doing alot better. My surgery day is Jan 18th and I'm so nervous lol. Is there anyone out there that is new to this?

Why in January if you don't mind me asking? Are you paying cash or have insurance

My surgery was based on my first visit weigh in. !y dr wanted me to lose weight, I guess to prove that I could do it. I started at 210 on my surgery day I weighed 194. Not a big loss but it helped to prepare my mind and body as to what was coming after surgery.. good luck

Diet cranberry juice has been my saving grace-not too sweet not too tart. It isn't easy so far...

      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... :(
