I'm nervous. I just got my date today and I guess I didn't expect it to be so soon. I start the preop diet on Monday and I'm just scared, nervous and excited.

I guess I have to be ready. I am looking forward moreso from the break of work during recovery than anything else. It's been drilled in adnausium.

The only good funerals I guess I want to have is a sushi sake one. I am already in my presurgery diet phase at a limit of 1000cals a day.

Ready or not... here I come... or is it go!

I start my liquid diet (4 weeks) on Monday, so I'm even sitting on the bench for Thanksgiving this year. 4 weeks because I have had diabetes for 20 years and they want to ensure that my liver is nice and lean prior to surgery.

All things considered, I am super excited. I haven't felt the need to do any food funerals, although my "last supper" tomorrow night will be sushi.

I agree, December sleevers are hardcore!

I start my post op pre diet on December 5. I am really nervous about it. All liquids........... Truly seems impossible. But, I am going to do it. I've already kicked caffine and carbination. This coming week I am cutting sugar. Hopefully not going to have those headaches everyone talks about on day 2 and 3 of my pre-op diet. I'll let you know how it goes!

Dec 7th surgery for me. I am definitely freaking out about it but trying to keep my head on straight. I started my 2 week pre-op diet today. I'll be a couple days short of 2 weeks but I had to have thanksgiving. I kept calling it "The Last Supper".

I'm so stressed out and I know I'm being a complete butthead to people because after almost a year (yes, had so much trouble with multiple things) it's finally here. I'm not one to normally worry so much but it's the lifestyle change that's got me going. Also i'm worried I will be ridiculously sick after surgery. That's probably my biggest fear.

Definitely been having food funerals My birthday is on 12/6 so I had an early bday with my family today. My husband is worried that I'm having too many food funerals haha. I'm supposed to start my liquid diet Dec 1 so I'm gonna try to lay off crazy food starting now so it's not too much of a shock to my system lol. Good to know I'm not the only naughty kid in class.

Im with you on the food commercials... Lol. Then yesterday my dad bought my son fast food and started naming the items as he pulled each thing out of the bag, one after another. I got sooo heated! Ughhhhhhhhh! It's going to be a tough rode. But Decembers sleevers are definitely hardcore!

      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... :(
