Oh really? By how long??
Are you on the pre op diet? I'm on day 5 today, feeling positive!
The surgery itself is terrifying me, I can deal with pain but it's the unknown of what I'll feel like afterwards that is scaring me! Plus I've never had a general anaesthetic before so I'm terrified I won't wake up! [emoji27]

I'm okay with the unknown because I'm so excited... But I want to be done already!!! We're looking for dates after October 15th and I'm annoyed.... Not on pre op yet. Go you!

My pre op isn't as bad as some I've read about! I'm actually allowed solid foods [emoji3]...currently I'm 210lbs, hoping to lose some on pre op. In the US is it an over night stay in hospital too?

Congrats! I am scheduled for my first fill this Monday. So far I have lost 12 lbs. The surgery itself for me was not bad at all! Post op I'd say it took me a full to days to feel like "myself" again.

      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! 😞
