I was scheduled for 5/31 but couldn't pass my stress test so now I have have a heart cath and stents and put surgery off for a yr. but the blessing is I found out before I had a heart attack. I had started my 10 -day pre-op diet and now on day 7. As of today I've lost a total of 19# 11# have been in the last 7days. I'm going to do this for 30 days then go to modify my food intake to see if I can loose enough. Hw- 325

RNY Is another term for the gastric bypass. I've not heard of a minisleeve? I'm a bit nervous, but more excited actually. I had a total hysterectomy via laparoscope when I was 34 and I remember the pain from that, so I will use that as a baseline. LOL.
My surgery will be in Temple, TX at Baylor, Scott, and White hospital.
I will be occupied from June 1st until June 19th, so I won't be obsessing about surgery day. My daughters are coming to see me from Upstate New York. I haven't seen them since last summer. So, I'll be busy with them.
I know the day before surgery I'll be nervous and won't sleep. My brain will be in overdrive. LOL. Good luck to you with your surgery and recovery.

I've been researching for 2 years now. I personally know 8 different people who have gone and are having great success. So, in 21 days it's my turn!!
I'm going to Dr. Almanza in Tijuana.

      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! 😞
