Recommended Posts

I got them both today!!! I was so nervous, but approval only took a week, thank goodness! Now I just have to find a way to keep myself occupied until my February 20th surgery date!

I'm so excited!

Did you have to wait 6 months initially?

I did have to do the 6 month supervised diet, yes. And actually, it's been several months longer than that. I started the process about 10 months ago. I was living on the other side of the state, and after 4 months I got a new job and had to move. With the insurance switch, etc, I ended up having to skip a month, which meant I had to start all over!

It seems like I've been doing this forever, but at the same time it's gone quickly.

      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! 😞
