Scared!! And so confused. So much information.. I haven't even started buying anything as far as shakes.
Me too! First I was so looking into Premier Protein shake.. But they strongly recommend powder. Therefore, I'm going for Isopure. But I'm scared too. I have kids ????

Yeah! I went out and bought Dutch chocolate Isopure & some Premier Protein bottles. Are they not good???

And I have kids also!

I was sleeved 10/21/16 after having my date changed twice! Each time I was getting close I was anxious. I tried talking myself out of it. I have an anxiety disorder which just made it worse. But I got it done it wasn't so bad. The surgeon even told me before I went back that I could get off the bed and walk out if I still wanted lol. I only stayed one night in the hospital which just made it better.

I have my date! It's approved!! I'm so scared. And pretty much alone in this. I wish I had someone to just... to chat with. I have no one to count on.. I'm on my own for this journey.

Anyway.. if anyone wants to just chat! I'm 25, Female, weigh 320lbs.

Don't let anyone take away your excitement, especially your family. My mother won't support me or go to the hospital when inhale this surgery so I avoid talking to her about it. I'm doing this because it's the right thing for me and no one else's opinion matters. Good luck you'll do wonderful

I was really nervous for my surgery and tried talking myself out of it every time my date came up. (They rescheduled me 2 times) the surgeon even told before they took me back that it was my last chance to get off my bed and walk out of the hospital. But I made myself stay because I knew I needed the surgery. I am not too worried about excess skin, I am going to tighten as much as I can. But I know I am going to have some due to the weight and a pregnancy.

My highest weight is 583 and my current weight is 4 90 so I know there will be a lot of skin to be removed

I think if you can get through the weight loss surgery you can get through the skin removal! You will do great.

      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.

      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! 😞
