Hi everyone,

My name is Donia and I live in Oklahoma. I will be having gastric sleeve surgery in 2-3 months and wanted to introduce myself. I have been busy with appointments and learning from my dietitian, exercise specialist, and others to help ensure a safe and successful journey. I have started really focusing on my Protein intake and am amazed at what a difference it makes. So glad to have found this group!

Hi Donia, I'm from Oklahoma too. This is an amazing journey we're going on. It might seem overwhelming at first, but it will get easier. Best of Luck!

      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! 😞
