My month will be officially Aug 3rd, I had my surgery on a July 3rd on a Monday. For me the sleeve was the best decision I made. I know a lot has changed for me in the last month. Before the surgery I was diabetic not now... and enlarged heart... my Dr. said it's back down to a normal size. Started having signs that the diabetes was messing with my kidneys but not now. Everyday I wake up feeling good but not like before I felt bad all the time and basically ignored or pushed through it cuz l wasn't going to let life rule me! FB_IMG_1495789626316.jpg IMG_0586.JPG

Congratulations on your success!! Hearing your storying gives me hope my surgery is schedule for August 25 and I can't wait. I was diagnosed with lupus over 13 years ago. I know my surgery won't cure my illness , but I know the extra weight off of my joints will help tremendously.

Congrats on your success and keep up the outstanding job! I was sleeved a week ago, July 26th. Even though I was a nervous reck and wanted to bail out many times. I'm so glad I stuck with the WSL. I feel so much better than I have in a very long time. The day of my discharged from the hospital, the nurse said that my diabetes and blood pressure were normal. I take no meds now. God is so good!

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
