So---first post here. Just got the call that insurance approval was in--they said I should hear in a day or two about scheduling the pre-op visit and the surgery! I've been thinking about doing WLS since June 2016. Dropped off the paperwork in Feb. 2017--it has been a slow process, with a battle with h pylori that wouldn't go away. I can't believe that this might actually happen this year. Hoping I hear tomorrow and can have the surgery in early December. But I am all of a sudden anxious about the 1-2 weeks before and after the surgery.

Normal to be nervous. I am also. You’ve come this far, it might be hard but think of the end result.

So---I have my date--Next Wednesday! Having a terrible headache today--which I think is due to the no carbs, no sugar diet I'm on per surgery. Trying to get through this...I know it will all be worth it!

      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! 😞
