OMG soooo excite! Bought my Protein Powder for my liquid diet. Going to spend the next few days ordering some things I need off Amazon. Have a work conference this week, and start my liquid diet next Thursday 10/12. SOOOOO GLAD the timing on that worked out! It would have been miserable trying to faithfully do the liquid diet while at a conference lol


I'm still preparing & surgery is Wed 10/4/17. What have you ordered? Going to pack for the hospital tonight so I don't have to think about it tomorrow.

Best wishes on your journey.

My surgeon told me to get the sleeve instead of the bypass. He said that you can avoid the frequent dumping syndrome and that in his practice that sleevers lose weight at the same rate as gastrics.



My doctor told me the same thing........less complications

I'm feeling scared and excited at the same time.


We got this!!! Everyone says they were super nervous pre-op for nothing. They go to sleep, next thing they know they're on the loser's bench. Wish it was November already and we were all on the other side!

Sitting down catching up with all of your posts with my Cookies and cream Protein Shake and it is becoming a bit surreal. I have my appointment this afternoon with the second surgeon who will be working on me and as long as they give a thumbs up and my blood work is all good we should be able to start the countdown.

Cookies n cream Protein Shake that sounds so good. I will start the liquid diet on the 9th. I hope I can stick to it, I have a fatty liver anyway. So I hope there's no problem when my surgeon performs my surgery.

      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... :(
