My last appointment is on May 30th so I hope to have my surgery end of June when I take two weeks off for my birthday. I doubt that will happen so I'm guessing some time in August. Congrats!

Cool. I don't know when I'll find out I just know i needed three visits with the dietitian and my 3rd appointment is June so surgery should be mid July. Have u completed all your test and nutrition visits? When did you start the process?

I completed all my testing. My last appointment with nutritionist is this month. I started in November I had a couple of health issues that needed to be addressed so I had lots of testing and doctor appointments. It has been a very long road for me. I had two doctors that were very negative about me having gastric bypass so I replaced them both with doctors that both are so very happy for me and very supportive!

Cardiac exam is quick & easy. I noticed that with heart specialist they may have a full schedule so its good to schedule the cardiac appointment as soon as possible but if you have already scheduled it make sure you go to it. The reason why I am saying this is because they fill up quick and when I rescheduled it took me another 3 weeks to get in. So try to avoid rescheduling so you can get that clearance. I also had to go through an extra exam with my heart specialist so that caused another delay. The sleep study was ok for me they woke me up throughout the night so that wasnt the best sleep. I have moderate apnea and I am on a full mask cpap. If you do have sleep apnea they will order a c pap machine before your surgery. Insurance pays for it but you have to use it or they will stop paying for it. Before I got mine my nurse told me you have to have the cpap machine before your surgery& also bring it with you for the hospital stay post op. I finally got my machine and it so very helpful. Like I stated in an earlier post. This is a process and at times it will go fast and then go slow but still in all it brings you closer to your surgery date. Just keep working on getting all your pre op finished and keep the smile on your face. Youre almost there. Happy face

      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?

      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! 😞
