Best of luck to you! A girl in my surgery group started at 446. She just had her 1 year anniversary about a month ago, and a couple of weeks ago (just past her 1 year mark) she was down to 223, exactly 1/2 of her previous weight. She's doing great, and you can too!

My surgery is in 8 days. I started my preop liver shrink diet Monday, and I took before pics. I plan to also take them the day of surgery and every month thereafter in the same clothing.

Thanks. Yeah I'm taking pics once a week now so I can create a flip book when I'm all done. I'm excited. Good luck!

Good luck to you. You're already on the right track. Giving up the things you have and training yourself to eat healthier before surgery only makes it easier after surgery. I was 341 at first consult and had lost 45lbs before surgery. You'll be able to too! Best of luck to you????

      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! 😞
