@@MissMellyMell have you gotten your endoscopy scheduled yet? Or a call about a date?

Hi @@boogie_badd8nt_she I was able to have my Upper endoscopy here in Vancouver at Peacehealth off of Millplain Blvd. I had it with Dr.Eklier. All I had to do was have UW fax the referral and then I called in the next day to schedule. Way more convenient and cost efficient than waiting until the new year and driving up to UW again. Also I'm still working on that dang 5%, they won't schedule me to even meet the surgon until that 5% is lost. Other than that everything else is done! I was hoping things would happen a little quicker, but looks like surgery won't be happening until March or April at this point, but I'm okay with that too, as long as it happens in the new year! How are you doing? Oh feel free to message me too! Did you say you're also in Vancouver?

      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! 😞
