I'm up and outdoors shopping

I feel great.

Slowly Walk walk walk it makes a big difference.

I am scheduled for 12/14 and it's starting to get real. So glad you're doing so well! Makes me hopeful!

Yes tell them right away you have anxiety and you feel panicked and ask if they can give you something to calm down. It's amazing stuff and I promise it wull calm you. I get panic attacks. I love the stuff they give you! They will give it in your IV though so breath and count and be distracted while they get your IV started and then they can put you in zen. If you are scared in the waiting room tell the receptionist what's going. Tell them you feel like you may have a panic attack. They can help you through it. But know that it will go great! It's an incredibly common surgery with extremely rare issues. It's scary yes for you but for the doctor it's easy peasy!!! And even better you are sleeping through the worst of it and then BAM it's over and on to recovery!!

      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.

        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... :(
