My surgery is September 12th. Pre-op starts 8-22. I have to do 3weeks. I'm with you -RSM.... this is going to be tough. Especially since my wedding anniversary is 9-3 and my husband and I are going out of town then we are headed to Cali on 9-7. I get back on the 10th then surgery is the 12th. I was telling my husband how in the world am I going to do this [emoji24][emoji36]

A few of us on the 6th now! My surgeon says no pre-op diet is necessary, but seeing that just about everyone else is going to be on one makes me want to do it anyhow.

Mine says I should do 3 week no carb and 3 days full liquid right before. Apparently these help shrink the liver so the surgery is a little easier and can be moved out of the way. Can possibly help avoid an extra incision.

      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! 😞
